Ramona Light by Elizabeth Smith is a simple, lightweight cardigan designed for everyday wear. Knit from the top down in sport-weight yarn, it has a slightly cropped shape, seamless construction and a subtle faux seam detail at the sides, giving the finished piece a little extra structure.
This kit uses our Sportlicious yarn base, a soft and smooth sport / 5ply yarn with beautiful stitch definition. It’s a lovely choice for Ramona Light, creating a cardigan that feels light enough for layering, but still warm and useful through the cooler months.
Why we love it
Ramona Light is one of those easy, wearable cardigans that can become part of your regular wardrobe. The shape is simple and classic, with just enough detail to keep the knitting interesting. It’s a lovely project for choosing a colour you’ll reach for often, from soft neutrals to deeper everyday shades.
