Chloe Cardi Pattern

I designed the Chloe Cardi this summer with the help of Sue Hislop. I wanted to create something simple, effortless, and easy to wear - the kind of cardigan you find yourself reaching for again and again. But I also wanted it to have a few thoughtful design details that make it feel a little more special than your everyday basic. I love the relaxed fit and longer silhouette, and it knits up surprisingly quickly in our soft, brushed bouclé Serenity yarn.
