Jules Cardigan and Hat P192

Get a head start on your Autumn/Winter wardrobe with this stylish and cozy cardigan, designed to be knitted from the top down. Featuring a simple yet elegant Rib patterned yoke, this cardigan is perfect for layering during the colder months. Choose between two sleeve options: one version is knitted in the round for a seamless finish, while the other offers a flat knitting technique for a classic look. The unique cast-off edge at the bottom and sleeves is my original take on a picot edge, adding a charming detail to complete your cardigan beautifully. The body of the cardigan is knitted in a comfortable garter stitch, ensuring a snug fit that is easy to wear. This pattern has been graded as suitable for Intermediate knitters, making it a great project to enhance your skills.

YARN:

For this project, I recommend using Lang Yarns Merino 120, crafted from 100% Merino Wool in a luxurious 8-Ply (DK) weight with a delightful Colour 96. Alternatively, you can opt for the Sirdar Snuggly Baby Cashmere Merino DK, which combines 57% Wool, 33% Acrylic, and 10% Cashmere, available in a charming Almond 453 shade. Both yarn options provide superior warmth and softness, perfect for creating a staple piece for your wardrobe.

This stylish cardigan pattern offers not just warmth, but also versatility in design, making it an ideal choice for knitters looking to create a fashionable and functional garment. Whether you're wearing it to keep warm during brisk autumn walks or cozying up indoors, this cardigan will surely become a favorite in your collection.
