A relaxed cardigan knit with worsted weight yarn. The warmth and the color of the cardigan remind me of the snow skies during winter months, which we often get here in the Canadian prairies. They are the perfect days for staying curled up with a hot drink and cozy oversized cardigan. The deep pockets let you shove your hands and an extra kleenex or two into them. Make it your own by using unique buttons, or fun fabric scraps for optional elbow patches.
