Françoise Cardigan

If you want to look elegant, but cosy in every occasion, this versatile cardigan is for you. This Parisian vintage inspired design is perfect to elevate any outfit. It's designed for endless layering options. Due to the slightly cropped fit, it's the perfect layer on top of dresses or skirts. But If you want to feel like a real Françoise Hardy it also looks very elegant on a good pair of trousers/jeans. Because the cardigan is fitted in the bottom ribbing, it accentuates the waist in a very flattering manner. The cardigan has a romantic outlook due to a lace stitch. This stitch is explained in writing and in a chart. You can follow any of these instructions, whichever you prefer to knit with.
