Elsie Cardigan
Elsie Cardigan
The Elsie Cardigan is knit from the top down. This seamless construction allows you to “try on” as you go and make adjustments to the sleeve and body lengths if necessary. The cardigan features 3 buttons, ¾ length raglan sleeves and an optional crocheted border. The Elsie Cardigan was designed with zero ease to fit closely over a dress or light summer garment.
