GRAN

Introducing the GRAN cardigan and modern boxy jacket knitting pattern, designed for flexibility and style! This versatile garment can be worn as a chic cardigan with 8-10” of positive ease, or transformed into a contemporary, oversized jacket featuring 12-18” of positive ease. The standout design element of the GRAN lies in its deep, folded bands of stockinette at the hem and pocket edges, complemented by a beautifully crafted reverse stockinette stitch at the sleeve cuffs and outer pockets, making it a stunning addition to your wardrobe.

The construction of the GRAN is both straightforward and rewarding, as the fronts and back are knit flat from the bottom up and seamed for a polished finish. A unique technique is employed for the pockets where the reverse stockinette outer face is ingeniously knit inside-out in the round, seamlessly joining the lining with the hem band, both sides of the pocket, and the body above. This innovative approach eliminates any bulk and enhances the overall elegance of the garment. The sleeves are skillfully picked up along the armhole edge and knit in the round from the top down, ensuring a comfortable fit and sleek silhouette.

The front opening and neckline are accented with a wide double-knit vertical band, which is carefully knit separately and then sewn on for a refined touch. This attention to detail elevates the GRAN to a wardrobe staple perfect for any knitting enthusiast looking to create a stylish piece. Whether you’re dressing up for a special occasion or keeping it casual, the GRAN cardigan and jacket pattern promises to be a versatile and timeless addition to your collection.
