Description
The Husband Cardigan is a shawl-collared cardigan that combines classic techniques like drop shoulders and typical Gansey stitches with originality, with an underarm gusset constructed at the same time as the body and a shawl collar.

The Husband Cardigan is designed for men but can be worn by women by adjusting the length of the sleeves and body.
