Dunes Bolero

Discover our stylish oversized cardigan/bolero with short sleeves, expertly knitted in one piece from side to side. This versatile piece is designed to drape elegantly, making it the perfect addition to your spring and summer wardrobe. Ideal for beach outings or casual get-togethers, especially when knitted with 100% cotton yarn for that lightweight feel.

This charming cardigan features a finished size of 32-38 (42-48)” bust circumference, making it a great fit for various body types. Thanks to its stretchy design and the fact that it doesn’t need to meet in the front, this garment accommodates a wide range of sizes, giving you freedom and comfort in one beautiful package.

For this knitting project, any DK (8ply) yarn will work wonderfully, allowing for a multitude of color options to express your personal style. Make sure to gather your materials: you'll need circular needles (4 mm) with an 80cm cord for the body, which provides ample length, and a 40cm cord for the sleeves. Plus, you'll require a crochet hook to facilitate a provisional cast-on, ensuring your project starts off on the right foot.

Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just getting started, this oversized cardigan/bolero pattern is a must-try for anyone looking to elevate their knitting skills while creating a fashionable, comfortable piece that transitions beautifully from day to night.
