The Susurrus Cardi (named after the sound of rustling leaves), is inspired by cooling weather and practicality. It’s warm but lightweight, perfect for an autumn walk, running errands, or chilling at home with a cup of tea. Due to its longer length and stylish details it looks great with jeans or your favorite leggings.

The Susurrus Cardi is a raglan style sweater, knit flat, from the top down, and seamless (except for the optional pockets). The sleeves are knit in the round. Its simple construction makes it perfect for a first sweater or someone without alot of sweater knitting experience.

Sweater is meant to have 3 to 5 inches/ 7.5 to 12.5 cm of positive ease which is worked into the pattern.
