The thoughtfully designed Cabled Cardigan from Vermont Fiber Designs began when someone requested a crewneck cabled cardigan from the designer. This gorgeous sweater is the result. It features "built-in" buttons bands (with buttons that are perfectly placed within the cables), long ribbing at the hem and cuffs, and intricate cable patterns throughout. This cardigan certainly lives up to its name.
