Laventeli

Introducing the Laventeli Open Front Cardigan, a stunning and versatile piece that features an exquisite V-neck lace collar. This beautifully designed cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down, allowing for a smooth and enjoyable knitting experience. The body is knit back and forth, while the sleeves are crafted in the round, creating a streamlined finish. One of the standout features of this cardigan is the i-cord edging, which is worked simultaneously with the lace collar, adding an elegant touch to your creation. Two lengths are offered, providing the flexibility to choose between a regular or long cardigan that suits your style.

The Laventeli Cardigan is intentionally designed with approximately 2 inches (5 cm) of positive ease already built into each size, ensuring a comfortable fit and flattering silhouette. The sample shown is a size M in the stylish long version, making it a perfect layering piece for any wardrobe.
