    KASKADE CARDIGAN is a cropped cardigan with three-quarter length sleeves and a simple but elegant hole pattern knitted. The Brushed Alpaca held double makes it light and airy. The buttonholes in the integrated placket are aligned with the hole pattern, which gives it a seamless look. You knit top-down and knit the folded neck hem together. Short rows are added at the bottom to make extra length on the back.
