Pleat
by Lisa Richardson
This pretty cardigan by Lisa Richardson uses classic tailoring to create a flattering and sophisticated silhouette. Worked in simple stocking stitch, the added details of garter stitch trims, a saddle shoulder and dramatic pleats at the front and back all enhance the tailored look. Knitted using Pure Alpaca and finished with a neat button fastening, this short-sleeved knit is a key layer for autumn.
