This cardigan was inspired by the long blades of beach grass that twist and tangle together in the coastal wind. The flowing texture is created with twisted stitches and a simple, repeatable cable motif that is engaging to knit while remaining approachable.

On the outside, the fabric evokes windswept grasses bending and crossing along the shoreline. On the inside, the reverse side reveals a softer rolling texture reminiscent of gentle sand dunes shaped by the tide and wind. The result is a garment rich in movement and texture from every angle.

Designed to be both elegant and wearable, this cardigan blends organic inspiration with clean, modern lines, creating a timeless layering piece with quiet coastal character.

The cardigan is designed to be worn with a large amount of positive ease at the bust (10 - 15”).
