The Ozzy V Cardigan is possibly the most effortlessly chic item of knitwear that I own. I can imagine it in endless colour combinations but think that it would be equally lovely worked up in a single colour, or maybe something with a halo like mohair to give it a softer overall look. Whatever direction you choose, I know you’re going to live in this cardigan! **Sizes** 81.5 (89, 96.5, 106.5, 112, 122) [132, 142, 152.5, 162.5, 172.5] cm / 32 (35, 38, 42, 44, 48) [52, 56, 60, 64, 68]” Samples are shown with about 6” of positive ease.
