The Lacy Day Cardigan is a feminine, modern cardigan featuring delicate lace panels and a flattering V-neckline. It is worked from the top down in rows, allowing you to try it on as you go and adjust the length of both body and sleeves to your preference. The design combines simple stockinette sections with elegant lace motifs that run along the front panels, sleeves, and back, creating a light and airy texture.
The cardigan is shaped to provide a comfortable yet refined fit, with thoughtful placement of increases to balance the body and sleeves. Ribbed edges at the cuffs and hem add structure and a polished finish.
