Brontide

Brontide Cardigan Pattern is a beautifully crafted top-down cabled cardigan inspired by the dynamic movements of earthquakes and seismic events. This unique cardigan is expertly designed to be worked in one seamless piece from the top down, making it a convenient and enjoyable knitting project for all skill levels. Utilizing short-row shaping, the pattern creates a graceful rounded neckline, ensuring a comfortable fit that flatters the neck and shoulders.

The Brontide Cardigan features waist and back shaping that contributes to a flattering hourglass silhouette, perfect for accentuating your figure. The reverse stockinette sleeves are seamlessly knitted, adding to the cardigan's overall elegance and comfort. To complete this stylish piece, stitches are picked up for the ribbed button bands, providing a polished finish. Crafted using plump, worsted-weight yarn, the stunning cables truly pop against the reverse stockinette background, offering both texture and visual interest.

This knitting pattern is crafted with accessibility in mind, providing both metric and US terminology for ease of use. You'll find that both written and charted instructions are included for the intricate cable panels, making it straightforward for knitters to follow along. Additionally, the pattern comes equipped with helpful photo tutorials for mastering German short rows and creating one-row buttonholes, making this cardigan a great choice for both novice and seasoned knitters alike.

Gauge: 19 stitches × 29 rows = 10 cm / 4" in reverse stockinette on larger needles, blocked. This gauge is essential for achieving the perfect fit and aesthetic for your Brontide Cardigan.
