A stylish open-front cardigan, Hexa’s simple construction and customizable design make it great for both advanced beginners ready to try their first garment and experienced crocheters alike. Single-strand, unspun Icelandic Plötulopi makes it soft, light and warm.

The cardigan is worked in the round as two hexagons joined at centre back and across the sleeves, and finished with post-stitch ribbing. An optional belt is worked separately.
