Amy Christoffers' Felix Cardigan is a cropped, top-down beauty with an eyelet motif incorporated into the raglan increases. This perfect layering piece is knit up in Kelbourne Woolens Lucky Tweed (100% merino), a 2-ply offering that hits that elusive worsted/Aran sweet spot with beautiful deep colors.
