Noro Ocean Sunset Cardi is the perfect women’s sweater
to slip on at the end of the day as the air cools knit in Tsubame. The cocoon-shaped
cardigan features three-quarter batwing sleeves, curved front edges worked in
an allover rib pattern, and the sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch. Ocean
Sunset Cardi is knit in one piece from the bottom up to the underarms. The
fronts and back are then worked with the sleeves and then seamed. Tsubame is a single-ply blend of silk, wool, and polyamide from Noro that features their signature long-run color changes.
