Botanical Cardi Pattern
$10.00
The Botanical Cardi is truly a one-of-a-kind artistic cardigan. In this design, we'll knit from the center back flower outward - making this a fantastic design to learn modular and simple lace knitting as well as a handful of fun new stitches. It's a seamless design with a unique construction featuring a v-neckline and lace fronts that can be worn open or with a simple button to close. This spring style is a wonderful, airy knit and makes for a great layering piece with any wardrobe staple.

Where anything feels possible
Meet the Spinners
Over the course of the last 13 years, we've created our own little cottage industry within the Indian economy where 16 Indian women create our yarns! There’s just so much that goes into each and every skein and none of it would be possible without this team, right here, making it all happen. One of my favorite things about being there is that anything feels possible. Read more on the blog: India Team + Trip Recap.
