Franca V-Neck Cardie November 14 & December 12
Two-Session Class
Saturdays, November 14 & December 12
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Hello Holidays! Bell sleeves bring serious style to this relaxed v-neck cardigan that’s all about effortless elegance. Simple garter and stockinette stitches let the dramatic sleeve shape do the talking, while the button-front closure gives you styling options for days. Wear it loose and open or cinched with a belt for a totally different vibe.
Franca is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. This cardi makes a great gift in time for year-end holidays! Or for yourself!
