MANDRAZZE CARDIGAN, aran-weight cotton cardigan
Discover the beauty of knitting with our elegant cardigan, featuring a stunning wide ribbed pattern that adds flair to any wardrobe. This design showcases a harmonious mix of textures, with the welt, cuffs, neckband, and front bands knitted in cozy garter stitch. The cardigan boasts raglan-shaped sleeves, allowing for a comfortable fit and easy movement. Unique to this design, there are no side seams, as the cardigan is crafted in one piece until reaching the armholes. For added refinement, the neckband and front bands are knitted using a finer DK-weight cotton, giving it a lovely finish.
This well-written pattern also includes instructions for short sleeves, making it versatile for any occasion. As part of our YPSPIGRA subdivision, this cardigan is featured in the exclusive MANDRAZZE series, which also includes the stylish Mandrazze Rustic jumper. Ideal for knitters of all skill levels, this design is suitable for all age groups and body types, making it a perfect project for everyone in the family.
Skill level required: 3 (intermediate). The original cardigan is beautifully crafted in our aran-weight cotton called AGRIGENTO, which offers the perfect balance of warmth and breathability, with specifications of 100 g = 150 meters (3½ oz - 163 yds). For this project, you'll need a pair of 4½ mm needles to bring your creation to life.
