Circlet Cardigan

Introducing the Circlet Cardigan, a charming swing-style cardigan that combines elegance with cozy warmth. This beautifully designed cardigan features an eye-catching yoke adorned with a unique cabled knotwork motif, making it a standout piece in any wardrobe. The body of the Circlet Cardigan is crafted flat using a simple yet effective Staghorn stitch pattern, while subtle decreases up through the armscyes create a flattering A-line silhouette that complements various body shapes. Both the sleeves and the body begin with a delicate turned hem and are seamlessly joined for a smooth transition before the yoke begins. The innovative yoke is knit sideways using cleverly constructed short rows, ensuring a comfortable fit that frames the shoulders perfectly. To finish off this delightful cardigan, a classic crew neck with a folded hem adds a polished touch. Knitters will require US 6 (4mm) straight or circular needles in sizes ranging from 32" to 60", or any size needed to achieve the correct gauge. Additional tools include needles one size smaller than those used to achieve gauge, a yarn needle, stitch markers, scrap yarn or stitch holders, and a cable needle. The Circlet Cardigan is available in a variety of sizes, with finished bust measurements of 32 (36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64) inches, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone.
