The Louise Cardigan is knit from top to bottom in a traditional raglan. Bobbles are repeated and staggered regularly and evenly throughout the knit. It is easy to modify the length of the body and sleeve, or adjust the shaping of the collar.

This lovely sweater has an heirloom, yet modern quality. Whether you pair it with some dark denim, linen dungarees, or your favorite plant dyed sweat pants, you can’t go wrong. And no, there are never enough bobbles in your life :wink: Find the coordinating Child sweater size pattern to make a matching set!
