Soft as a petal and light as a breeze, the Marguerite Cardigan is inspired by the effortless charm of the French countryside—where wild daisies bloom along quiet lanes and afternoons stretch out with a bottle of wine and a fresh baguette in hand.

Worked seamlessly from the top down, this cardigan offers a relaxed, open-front silhouette that flatters every figure and invites easy customization. The delicate lace motifs evoke scattered marguerite flowers across the fabric—an intuitive, rhythmic pattern that’s perfect for knitting on holiday, at the café, or by the fireside.

Whether you’re layering it over a sundress in the spring or wrapping up on a crisp autumn morning, Marguerite brings a bit of rustic romance to everyday life. C’est chic, c’est simple, c’est parfait.
