Iris Tree Cardigan
PATTERN IN PDF
As timeless as a cardigan gets. The Iris Tree Cardigan has a classic v-neck neckline, a clean button front, and a cropped fit for an updated look.
Details are everything in this seemingly classic-looking cardigan. The shoulders are perfectly shaped with simple short rows, the sleeves have shaped caps and gussets at the underarm to create a durable and good-fitting sleeve and the clean button front is the perfect finish off this knitted project.
The cardigan is named after Iris Tree, a multi-hyphenate poet, model, and creator of great wit, adventurous nature, and great talent. She is the ultimate between-the-wars British bohemian, a woman who defied convention at all costs.
