Midwinter Cardigan
Discover the perfect layering piece for the winter season with our cozy open front cardigan pattern. This stylish cardigan features a thick cable design that runs along the sides and gracefully wraps around the neck, ensuring you stay warm and fashionable against the brisk winter chill. Ideal for knitters of all skill levels, this delightful pattern is crafted from the bottom up using innovative short rows to expertly shape the hemline. In this design, mirrored cables are intricately woven along the front panels, showcasing your knitting prowess. The pattern provides clear instructions for separating the fronts and back at the armholes, allowing you to work each section independently for a well-fitted finish. The shoulders are effortlessly joined using a 3-needle bind-off technique, creating a smooth and polished look. The front cables extend elegantly past the shoulder and are meticulously grafted together, then sewn to the back neckline for a seamless finish. For added comfort and style, the sleeves are knit in the round from the cuff to the sleeve cap, ensuring no seams to irritate the skin. The sleeves are then set in for a clean silhouette, making this cardigan not only practical but also a chic addition to your winter wardrobe.
