Viola

I can't decide if I like this cardigan because it's lovely, or because I have a secret desire to be wafting about Venice like some kind of Shakespearean water nymph, as depicted in the photo.

I think it's probably the former. Who could resist its sweet charms and delicate lace edging? The contrasting colour around the button band, cuffs and hem is also a winner (and an effective trick that can be added to pretty much any pattern). 

It's only one of a collection of cardigans from Louisa Harding, which is a lovely book if you can get past some of the styling and hair ornaments that seem to have been nicked off the Empress of Fantasia (Brundi, I'm looking at you).

Available from all good stockists I expect, but I found it at Laughing Hens below:
