A classic V-necked raglan cardigan is given a sophisticated look through the use of textured panels on the lower fronts and back, and long cables twisting up the outside edge of the sleeves. The design feels wonderfully cosy and indulgent, thanks to the Pure Cashmere DK yarn from Lotus. It’s made from the softest Mongolian cashmere, which is a joy to knit with, and it is available in a range of 12 neutral and jewel-like shades.
