Audrey Cardigan is a simple, soft and feminine cardigan in stockinette stitch with i-cord ties and edges. It has a raglan construction and the fit is cropped and a bit boxy. Audrey Cardigan is worked back and forth from the top down holding 1 strand of Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair together throughout.
