With the Go-To Cardigan, we set out to create a knit that had the comfort and ease of a grandfather’s cardigan with a touch more style—a sweater you want to wrap up in on the weekend, but can wear to work and feel well dressed! For an even more updated look, we added fun colorblocking.

This cozy cardigan was knit in three colors of Rowan Felted Tweed, one of our all-time favorite yarns. On the finer side of DK-weight, this warm, woolly yarn blends merino wool with alpaca and viscose. As a result, it has softness and spring, drape and luster—and so many beautiful color options!
