Lily Kate France’s Calm Down Cardigan is an elegant, versatile wardrobe piece with beautiful finishing. The cardigan’s tidy details, like the ribbed saddle shoulders, shaped front notch, and double-knit button band, add refinement to the relaxed, comfortable shape. Juniper Moon's Patagonia Organic Merino is a soft, plush yarn that is a Spun staff favorite.

 

Julie B. notes, "This is just the right balance between mindless knitting and some fun construction techniques. It was my first time making a double knitting button band, and I absolutely love the very polished and neat finish that it gives. Patagonia is one of my favorite yarns to work with, and at $15 per skein, it's a very affordable price for a 'forever' cardigan."
