Summer Solstice

Discover the joy of knitting with our seamless Summer Solstice Cardigan pattern! This cardigan features an innovative, no-seaming construction method that begins with the elegant yoke, allowing you to pick up each subsequent piece directly from the last knitted section. The sleeves are crafted in the round using two circular needles, offering flexibility in your knitting approach. If you prefer to knit the sleeves flat, just keep in mind that this will require some seaming. Both the sleeve and body lengths are easily customizable, as this cardigan is designed to be worked from the top down. For instance, you can opt for stylish 3/4 length sleeves and adjust the body length to your liking—whether you want it short and chic or long and cozy. Additionally, we provide an alternate edge finishing technique if you desire a more polished look with less curl.

The only special skill required for this pattern is the ability to execute a provisional cast on. Due to its unique construction, we recommend this cardigan pattern for experienced knitters looking to challenge their skills and creativity. Take inspiration from the stunning example of Summer Solstice, which is knitted in Ella Rae Silkience yarn, specifically chosen for its beautiful drape. When selecting your own yarn for this design, make sure to choose a fiber that provides a lovely, flowing finish. Always remember to check your gauge for the perfect fit and finish. Dive into your next knitting adventure with this captivating Summer Solstice Cardigan pattern and let your creativity shine!
