Youth Rosemary Cardigan is just a smaller version of the original Rosemary Cardigan! She is my dream sweater. I wanted an oversized, open front cardigan, WITH POCKETS, that would cover my bum when I wear leggings or skinny jeans. It is a raglan so is also seamless.

It’s designed to have 6ins of positive ease.

I chose to use Knitpicks Upcycle Alpaca but since that was a limited edition I would recommend KnitPicks twill instead.
