Odelia is a cropped cardi with slightly belled cuffs knit completely in stockinette stitch, which means the fronts roll in and the edges roll up. Sometimes it’s fun to let stockinette do what it does best, roll! She is knitted almost seamlessly from the bottom up with English Tailored shoulders. The points can also be worn tied in the front. She’s the perfect cardi to throw on over everything as the weather begins to cool.
