Talcott Cardigan
Talcott Cardigan
Is there anything more autumnal than a good cabled cardigan? Rowan's Felted Tweed Aran is a favorite of mine for fall: Lofty, warm, flecked with beautiful color. For the Talcott Cardigan, I paired a nice mix of Stockinette with modern, graphic cables.
Talcott is a fresh version of a classic cardigan, with a wider crew neckline, cables that extend to the hem of the sweater, and a deep button band. It features long sleeves, cable and ribbing detail, and is worked in pieces from the bottom up with set-in sleeves.
