Seaglass Summer Cardi
The Seaglass Summer Cardi is a simple beach or swimsuit cover-up - that is just as beautiful back on solid land!

It's still great for the pool though - even after I soaked it, it dried super fast! The Seaglass Summer Cardi is truly one size fits all. It fits up to a 68” bust - and stretches too! Made with just 2 cakes of Red Heart It's a Wrap Rainbow, it's simple enough to be your first garment if you haven’t made one before!
