Yarn package for the Melissa Cardigan by Hirismakes.

The Melissa Cardigan is a lightweight, short cardigan that you’ll wear every day. This jacket is light and fluffy, super cozy, and beautiful too!

Simple and effortlessly versatile, it can be worn all year round.

You knit your Melissa Cardigan seamlessly from the top down with one strand of Sunday and one strand of Tynn Silk Mohair by Sandnes Garn.

The two yarns complement each other beautifully and are wonderfully soft and cozy when held together.

The Melissa Cardigan is a must-have—knit one for yourself and feel wonderfully comfortable!
