The construction of the Alyssum cardigan is thoughtfully designed; the back and sleeves are knit in one continuous piece from the bottom up with elegant raglan shaping for a beautiful silhouette. Meanwhile, the fronts are knitted in two separate pieces from the bottom up and then neatly seamed together for a polished finish. Toby, the exquisite yarn used for this project, is a smooth blend of 83% Mako cotton, 10% Mulberry silk, and 7% cashmere, making it not only soft to the touch but also sophisticated in appearance.
