*Due to delicate nature of mohair fiber, some shedding may occur.

Top-Down Cardigan is a  sumptuously soft and chunky cardigan knit in our Mohair So Soft yarn. As the name denotes, it’s knit top-down in one piece with familiar raglan shaping and, of course, we have video tutorials to walk you through any new-to-you techniques. It is knit seamlessly and you can easily adjust the length by adding more rows at the end.
