The Bridge Cardigan is dedication to all those who can’t get warm enough. Long, extra wide fronts and an extra tall neck surround you in warmth. Ties at the yoke create a gathered look. The cardigan is worked sideways from the cuffs-in and joined together at the center back with a technique that’s a lot more fun than Kitchener stitch.
