Beckham Cardigan - knitting pattern
Beckham Cardigan is a stylish and versatile unisex cardigan featuring a slightly oversized fit and innovative modified raglan construction. This charming piece is knit from the bottom-up in separate sections, which are then expertly seamed together using mattress stitch for a polished finish. The design includes a Back, Left Front, and Right Front that are worked fully back and forth, while the sleeves are skillfully knit in the round up to the armhole and then finished flat for added comfort and style.
The main body of the Beckham Cardigan can be crafted in a single color using classic stockinette stitch for a timeless look, or you can choose to embrace creativity with an intarsia argyle print. If you opt for the argyle, you’ll add a touch of elegance with thin diagonal lines that are beautifully duplicate-stitched at the end for a refined finish. The hem and cuffs feature a cozy 1x1 ribbing, and the sleeves are primarily knit in stockinette for a smooth drape. Additionally, the button bands are conveniently created as you go in a hollow rib technique, ensuring a seamless and professional appearance.
The collar is the finishing touch, worked last after the assembly in a graceful 1x1 rib to perfectly frame the neckline. This comprehensive Beckham Cardigan knitting pattern is perfect for knitters of all skill levels, providing detailed step-by-step instructions for the entire process.
