#336 Madison Cabled Cardigan

Experience the beauty of intricate textures with our cozy cardigan pattern featuring a stunning all-over cable design, enhanced with delicate lace elements. This sophisticated cable and lace stitch pattern adorns both the front and back of the cardigan, creating a visually captivating garment that’s perfect for chilly days.

For a striking contrast that complements the main stitch, the cardigan's generous sleeves are crafted exclusively in the lace portion of the stitch pattern, adding a light and airy feel to the overall design.

This charming cardigan is knitted from the bottom up in separate pieces, allowing for a classic construction that emphasizes both craftsmanship and style. Short rows are skillfully employed to shape the shoulders, which are then seamlessly joined using a 3-needle bind-off technique for a polished finish.

The full sleeves are beautifully picked up and knit straight down to the wrist in the same delicate lace, with a gentle gathering just before reaching the ribbed cuff to add a touch of flair. This careful attention to detail ensures a comfortable fit and lovely silhouette.

To complete the look, the ribbed collar and front bands are also picked up and knitted, allowing for an elegant button closure finish that enhances the overall aesthetic of this exquisite cardigan.

Shown here in a luxuriously soft, worsted-weight alpaca yarn, this garment not only showcases the stitch patterns beautifully but also feels incredibly soothing against the skin. Feel free to easily substitute another soft, worsted-weight yarn to suit your personal style and preferences.

For your convenience, both the cable and lace stitch patterns are provided in charted and written formats, making it easy for knitters of all levels to follow along and create this exquisite cardigan. Embark on a new knitting adventure and add this delightful cardigan to your collection today!
