With its simple dolman-sleeve construction and generously proportioned collar, the Falmouth Cardigan is the perfect showcase for Arranmore, the newest member of The Fibre Co. family. The simple stockinette-stitch canvas makes the rich tweed pop, and the plump stitches let you finish this project quickly for instant gratification.
