Reef from Rowan is a lovely textured women’s open-front
cardigan knit in Brushed Fleece, a wool & alpaca blend yarn with a soft
marled look in luscious colors and works up at a bulky weight for quick
projects! The sweater features a v-neckline, deep ribbed bands, dropped
shoulders, and long sleeves. Reef is an easygoing cardi you will enjoy wearing
to dress up or down any outfit. The cardigan is knit flat in pieces from the
bottom up and then seamed. The textured pattern is in written form only.
