Brooke is a cute feminine draped cardigan, those cool summer nights when you need a comfortable extra layer.
The short sleeves or 2/3 sleeves as well as the round neck makes it easy to wear over your sun dress or skinny jeans with sleeveless shirts.

Brooke is knit from the top down, with the body worked back and forth in one piece to the underarms. You can choose one of two sleeve lengths.

The model has almost 4”/10cm positive ease. It’s a draped design, so positive ease is suitable, but for the best result, it’s not bad to select a close fit.
