’S Wonderful Cardigan

Inspired by fifties fashion, this fresh, tailored yet comfortable cardi recalls the joie de vivre and Parisian chic of the Audrey Hepburn classic Funny Face. Its neatly waisted silhouette and pretty eyelet rib encapsulate the era’s aesthetic: feminine, flirty, but very wearable.

This cardigan is worked bottom up, in pieces, featuring a shaped waist, inset sleeves, and two options for sleeve length—short and three-quarter sleeves. English-tailored shoulders provide the perfect fit, with the front armhole deeper than the back and the shoulder seam angled over the upper back. The notched neckline is the insouciant finishing touch, combining the classic round neck with a flattering V to draw the eye up.

Stitch pattern is both written and charted.

Sample is 37.5”; model is 35”
