Cafuné

Introducing Cafuné, an exquisite cardigan pattern crafted in collaboration with Sunshine Yarns. Designed specifically for Sunshine Yarns Luxury Sport, this extremely soft, shiny, and smooth yarn elevates your knitting experience, providing extraordinary stitch definition that showcases intricate designs beautifully.

Cafuné is a top-down cardigan that features a unique circular shape and a generously sized shawl collar, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe. One of the standout features of this cardigan is its reversible cable pattern, allowing you to enjoy two distinct looks from one stunning piece. Elevate your style by accessorizing with a shawl pin to secure the look in the front, offering you endless possibilities for different appearances. When selecting yarn for this design, opt for a luxurious, thinner sport weight yarn to capture the beautiful texture essential for enhancing the cable pattern's intricacy. Note: This pattern requires you to be able to read charts effectively.
