So here it is, Marilyn's Not-So-Shrunken Cardigan, the antidote to frump and the kick-in-the pants most wardrobes need.


This thing is cool because it has that semi-shrunken look, but it won't cut your circulation or make you sweat. Plus, the pattern is flexible and points out areas you can customize it so it fits you and fits your lifestyle, too. It's knit from the top down, all in one piece.
