Women's Lightweight Cardigan

We knit this lightweight black cardigan with a gentle brushed surface that rests smooth against bare skin. The front stays open, and the body hangs straight and loose down toward the knee. It packs down small and slips easily over shirts, tees, and fine knit tops.

What we would tell you in the studio

  • Brushed yarn hand. The blend yarn carries a soft brushed texture that feels smooth against the skin. It gives light warmth without adding weight or bulk under heavier outer coats.
  • Open front cut. We shaped this with a plain round neckline and an open front that does not fasten. The body hangs away from the torso, falling straight to a mid-thigh hem.
  • Long sleeve shape. The sleeves are cut long and roomy enough to slide over long-sleeve base layers without pulling. They rest naturally along the arm without tight cuffs.
  • Washing and care. Machine wash this knit on a cold, gentle cycle to preserve the soft surface texture. Reshape the body while damp and lay it flat to dry instead of hanging.

Living with this one

Do

  • Wash cold and on the gentle cycle, or by hand if the yarn feels loose.
  • Dry it flat, in shape, away from the radiator.
  • Fold it on the shelf rather than hanging it by the shoulders.
  • Measure a jumper you already like and compare it before you settle on a size.

Skip

  • Bleach and fabric softener, both of them flatten the surface.
  • The hot tumble dryer, which is how knit becomes one size smaller.
  • Hangers with thin shoulders, they leave two points that never come out.
  • Ironing directly on the face of the knit.
