The feather motif on this cardigan—named for Frederic Remington, the painter and sculptor who shaped the romantic image of the
American Old West—is actually more than a decorative element. The V-neck is formed with fully fashioned dart shaping rather than the
more traditional decreases at the neck edge. On the left front, the pattern is incorporated into a lace motif embellishment, and on the
right, it’s worked with a simple centered double decrease.
