Essential Cropped Cardi
This elegant cropped cardigan will quickly become your go-to sweater to pop over dresses. Double moss stitch gives the fabric a delicate texture, while ribbed cables climb along the front opening and neckline. The raglan cardigan is knit seamlessly from the bottom up and the cabled front bands continue until they meet at the back of the neck. It is shown worn with 2-4” of ease.
