I love the versatility of 3/4 sleeves for year-round wear. Seaside starts off simply, easing you into texture features that are rhythmic and intuitive, giving you something to look forward to throughout the process. Slipped stitches and a charming back pleat created a cardigan you’ll find yourself reaching for again and again. The short length is flattering on any figure, especially when worn over a longer top or dress.
