Description

Enjoy la bella vita with Montisi, the whimsical union of a shawl and cardigan.  Worked from the top down, the back extends effortlessly around the front of the shoulders for the effect of airy sleeves. This versatile pattern allows you to choose from a tailored band or a ruffled edge and a short or long version. Work the fronts from the bottom up and seam, leaving a slit for your arms. The intricate, lacy mesh of the twist brioche stitch is perfect for dining al fresco on the piazza or dreaming of a Tuscan adventure.
