Crochet Balloon Sleeve Cardigan | Cropped Knitwear

The Statement Crop: Voluminous Simplicity

At Crochy Thrive, we find luxury in the interplay of form and texture. The Crochet Balloon Sleeve Cardigan is a contemporary piece defined by its exaggerated silhouette and enduring craftsmanship. Each cardigan is entirely handmade, showcasing a consistent, elegant knit stitch that provides a satisfying weight and unparalleled quality.

This design elevates the essential cropped layer through thoughtful volume. The dramatic, voluminous balloon sleeves are balanced by a clean cropped body and V-neckline, creating a sophisticated profile perfect for defining the waist and complementing high-waisted items. It is an investment in conscious style, offering versatile warmth and the lasting quality of artisan work.

Preserving Your Hand-Knit Treasure

To maintain the shape, color, and luxurious volume of your Crochet Cardigan:

1. Hand wash gently in cool water using a mild, delicate detergent.

2. Gently press out excess water; do not wring or tumble dry.

3. Lay flat to dry on a clean surface to preserve the cropped length and sleeve volume.

4. Store folded (do not hang) to prevent stretching and distortion.
