Chanson by Leah Prestamo is a drop-shouldered, deep V-neck cardigan with a pretty lace pattern at the hem and cuffs. This cardigan has a beautiful modern vintage feel, with a subtle, tonal marled fabric created by holding Cirro in shade Seraphic together with Cumbria Fingering in shade Scafell Pike. Leah has also designed a cowl to accompany the cardigan, which is worked in the round to create a doubled fabric for a substantial neck warmer, and is easily adjusted to accommodate more or less leftover yarn from your cardigan project!
