Wild Child Cardy Sample

Description

Wild Child Cardy is a relaxed fit statement garment made up of color pop squares designed by Lee Sartori. With a boxy silhouette and simple collar shape, all the attention is on the beautiful floral details of the squares and the coordinating edgings. Mood-boosting colors and a finer yarn weight make this project a fun creative challenge. This cardigan’s wow factor will add me-made joy to any summer outfit.

Crocheted in our durable, soft, eco-friendly Amble, this is a great easy-to-care-for project made from Easy-wash Merino wool, Easy-wash alpaca and recycled nylon. Easy-wash is a trademarked name that refers to a process used to make the wool and alpaca fibres in Amble machine washable without shrinking. The Easy-wash method is chlorine-free and AOX-free, making it a better environmental choice for producing machine-washable wool.

You can make your own version by purchasing the Wild Child Cardy Kit.
