This cardigan is not only totally cozy but also a real trend piece thanks to its short puffed sleeves! Puffed sleeves were already super trendy in Renaissance times, as more fabric was needed for more width, making the garment a real status symbol.

Whether worn on its own or with a thin top underneath, with the short-sleeved cardigan you can sew yourself a pretty jacket to suit any occasion!
