This stunning open-front cardigan is a tour of lines design, with a Garter stitch collar that looks equally handsome on both sides of the fabric. For knitters who love a puzzle, Pacific is worked one piece at a time, with stitches for the next section picked up and knit in a new direction. The skirt flares flatteringly at the hips and the fronts drape and swing beautifully.
