Keeping warm, looking cool – designed
for function and fashion in mind…

When I designed Elodie, I was looking for a sweater my
daughter could wear all the time, “grandpa” style
cardigan was the idea for the yarn I adored. I wanted
something she could wear with jeans and a pair of
boots…
The cardigan has evolved to more feminine look, I played with 4 different patterns to make the cardi more funky.
You can find a heart, argyle, ridge and wave patterns in there and all of them are given with bobbles extra touch!

Elodie is knitted bottom up seamlessly, sleeves are knitted
in ther round, flat option is also available… All bobble patterns are charted. The collar ends the project and short rows shaping makes all the eversion.
