Understated, yet very wearable, this button-front knit cardigan offers classic styling with versatility. Stitched in Caron Simply Soft with a windowpane design, the color contrast really stands out. Practice knit, purl, knit 2 together, and more. The pattern is available in 2 colorways, but why stop there? Explore the shades that look best on you. Wear it slightly open over a tank for a softer look, or button it fully for a clean, bold effect.
