Honey Bloom cardigan is a casual everyday raglan highlighted with strong lines of brioche accents on the hem, neckline, cuff and bands. Designed in collaboration with Vida Lifestyle NY, the elegant beauty of the rose gold tones in the Dk yarn held together with the mohair create a beautiful halo and silhouette. You can create a large collar for strong effect or a modest classical collar whichever suits your taste. This cardigan is designed to layer over your favorite shirts, blouses and pairs tastefully with favorite boots and jeans to complete your three season wardrobe. The body of the sweater is easily adjustable in length also. There are FOUR different closure options to customize your cardigan: Belt (make your own or wear your favorite from the closet); No Closure; a Frog Closure; or Crocheted Button Loops. Links to tutorials are provided as well as photo tutorials. Honey Bloom is so nice you will want to make it twice!
