Deepwood Cardigan was designed to be a versatile, “workhorse” garment that you can wear for any occasion. Whether you’re planning to go on a hike or dress up for a day out, this cardigan is a great addition your capsule wardrobe.

The cardigan’s standout features are its tailored fit and the tuck detail on the buttonband and neckband.

It’s worked seamlessly from the top down using the contiguous method for set-in sleeves.

The wool, cotton and linen blend yarn was chosen on purpose to create a garment that can withstand a lot of wear, while also being warm and drapey. The small percentage of silk adds a subtle shine to the fabric, which is slightly variegated up close.

The pattern was tech edited and tested.
