This roomy crochet cardigan is a comfy choice for all-day wear. Stitched in the supple hand of Caron Simply Soft, we combined 4 complementary shades to bring out the popular granny square motifs.

Offered in 3 generously sized options, you can enjoy the fresh version shown or use your combination of colors for a unique gift.
