Easier than it looks. This cardigan is knit in stockinette
stitch with a small amount of shaping at the lapels. The Contrasting lapel facing is knit separately and sewn on with a running
stitch in the main color.
The sleeves are slightly belled. Knit with Muench’s Kid Soft, a very luxurious mohair.
Our customers have made this sweater from conservative
black with white lapels to red with hot pink lapels.
