Chicane

• Product description

  These sporty cardigans feature extra long sleeves and a slim fit, and are perfect for cycling in the colder months. The aerodynamic ribbed elbow detailing (worked sideways and shaped as you go) makes this garment special and adds interest to the piece’s seemingly basic construction. Best of all, Cookie’s pattern provides plenty of sizing options for both men and women to enjoy!

  Designer: Cookie A.
