It is almost cardigan season again and our Bean, Alex, is ahead of the game! This gorgeous lace cardigan is perfect for layering and with balloon sleeves and deep cuffs, it adds a little drama to your wardrobe! Designed by Ambah O'Brien, this cardi was inspired by a small flowering shrub native to Australia. Alex thought it would be fitting to use a yarn native to Nevada, so she decided to knit this project with Reno Rafter 7 in the stunning Liquid Gold colorway!
