The textured fabric and weight of this garment makes it suitable for fall or spring, and not too hot for those with mild winters.

 

This almost-seamless cardigan is worked from the bottom up, including the hood. Use a slightly heavier yarn at gauge for a warmer sweater. Hood is shaped to fit the curve of the head, accentuated with ears on top! Instructions to skip ears included as well. Size up for a roomier fit.
