rectangle #3 / cardigan

Quince & Co.

$ 8
If you can cast on, knit, and bind off, then you can knit this comfy, chunky cardigan. It's worked as a long rectangle slit halfway down the middle to make two fronts. You won’t believe how easy it is to knit and wear. In fact, we should’ve called it The World’s Most Easiest Cardigan To Knit - but that would have been too long a title!
