An elegant and understated sweater, this cardigan is designed to be a wardrobe classic. The mixture of fine wool. baby alpaca, and angora creates an incredibly soft garment that can be worn over the barest camisole. The slightly looser-than-recommended gauge ensures a breathable, comfortable fabric with a lighter and more elastic feel. I designed this cardigan to be soft and feminine and to run the gamut from formal to casual, depending on what it is paired with. The hint of vintage is sure to appeal to modern women.
