The Wayfarer is a standard fitted, set-in sleeve cardigan with a mock turtleneck and zip front accented by contrasting I-cord edgings and patch pockets. The cardigan has waist shaping and is knit in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. The design of the mock turtleneck in 2 x 2 rib with contrast edging provides a versatile finished look whether the cardigan is zipped to the top or open at the neck.

This cardigan is designed to show off the best characteristics of a zip front, to emphasize the vertical lines, and to look good whether zipped or unzipped.
