Camrose Cardigan
Introducing our stylish yet casual cardigan pattern, a perfect blend of businesslike sophistication and everyday comfort! This cardigan is thoughtfully constructed using a modular approach, starting with the bottom ribbing crafted side to side in a cozy garter stitch. To create the body of the cardigan, you'll pick up stitches along one edge of the band, allowing for a seamless look and feel. The shoulders are cleverly shaped with short rows and then skillfully joined using the Three-Needle Bind-Off technique, ensuring a neat finish.
The design features a wide garter stitch collar that adds a touch of elegance to the front and back neck edges. Short rows at the back neck offer a stylish fold-back shawl collar, enhancing the cardigan's overall aesthetic. The sleeves are designed to begin with back-and-forth knitting, where a charming faux placket is added before transitioning to working in the round until reaching the desired underarm length. As a delightful detail, a unique cable and bobble panel is intricately worked up the center of each sleeve, giving your cardigan a distinctive flair.
To complete your project, adorable crochet button loops are included at the lower front, providing functional yet decorative accents. While the original yarn, Magnolia, is no longer available, we recommend substitutions like Mrs Crosby Carpet Bag, Mrs Moon Plump DK, or Adriafil WoCa to achieve a beautiful finish.
For the perfect fit, you will need 1219 (1361, 1502, 1644, 1802, 1927) yards / 1114 (1244, 1373, 1503, 1647, 1762) meters of yarn. This cardigan pattern is ideal for knitters looking to expand their skills while creating a versatile wardrobe staple that can be dressed up or down for any occasion.
