Cafuné is a top-down cardigan worked in a circular shape, featuring a large collar. The cable pattern used in this cardigan is completely reversible, offering versatility in styling options. Inspired by its namesake, the Portuguese word for running one’s fingers through someone’s hair, the undulating pattern aims to capture that sensation. Opt for the most luxurious yarn for this design: a thinner sport weight yarn that enhances the beauty of the cable pattern with its exquisite texture.
