Flutter Front Cardigan

Introducing our light-as-air cardigan sweater, a stunning top-down knitting pattern that combines elegance and comfort. This design features a beautifully crafted cabled round yoke, complemented by intricate lace details at the center front and hem, creating a visually captivating garment. The sweater ingeniously utilizes decreases in the front and increases in the back to form a striking diagonal lace side seam, resulting in a universally flattering swing shape that suits a variety of body types. Additionally, a thoughtfully designed gusset at the center back echoes the cabled yoke pattern, adding to the overall aesthetic and fit of the cardigan.

Crafted with Wicomico yarn, this cardigan offers an extraordinarily lofty feel. Although it is technically classified as a fingering weight yarn, its texture and size transform into that of a sport weight yarn once washed and blocked, making it an excellent choice for those looking to substitute yarns while maintaining the integrity of the design.
