Introducing our beautifully designed and expertly crafted top-down seamless cardigan pattern, perfect for knitters of all skill levels! This versatile cardigan features a unique construction method, allowing you to work the piece back and forth in rows before transitioning to a round yoke sweater style. The design is enhanced with a stunning simple lace and cable stitch pattern that elegantly circles the yoke. For improved fit, short rows are incorporated just below the yoke, ensuring the cardigan hugs your body in all the right places.
This pattern offers exceptional flexibility, as you can easily modify the length of both the body and sleeves to suit your personal preference. Once you have completed the yoke, you will continue with the sleeves, working them in rounds for a seamless finish. Adding a polished touch, stitches are picked up along the front edges to create beautiful button bands, making the only sewing required the attachment of buttons!
To successfully create this stunning cardigan, you'll need to master a few essential knitting skills: make increases with the m1 technique, execute decreases using ssk, k2tog, p2tog, k3tog, and k3tog-tbl methods, and create eye-catching cables. Familiarity with yarn overs (yo) will enable you to incorporate the delicate lacework into your design.
Our pattern includes one comprehensive chart, accompanied by detailed written instructions to guide you through every step of the process. While the sample was knit using Malabrigo Dos (now discontinued), we've listed a suitable substitute yarn option below to help you find the perfect match for your project.
Whether you're looking to create a cozy cardigan for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, this pattern is sure to become a staple in your knitting collection. Dive into your next knitting adventure with our top-down seamless cardigan design and showcase your skills with style!
