Embrace cozy elegance with our adorable Josephine Cardigan, a chic shrug that's quick to knit thanks to its big yarn and bold cables! The standout feature of this design is the intricate back cable panel, skillfully knit first. Once complete, the body and sleeves are seamlessly picked up from the sides, allowing the stunning cables to flow gracefully down the shoulders. After sewing the side and sleeve seams, the final touch is a plush ribbed collar that adds an extra layer of warmth and comfort. Don't miss the chance to create your own stylish Josephine Cardigan and stay warm and fashionable all winter season long!
