Watsyn Cardigan

Welcome to The Velvet Acorn, your go-to destination for purely original knitting and crochet pattern designs that celebrate the beauty of nature and the outdoors. Each pattern is thoughtfully crafted with a deep love for the natural world, ensuring that every piece reflects comfort, warmth, and versatility. Our aim is to create timeless garments that layer effortlessly and coordinate beautifully with your entire wardrobe. With a keen eye for detail, I strive to make every design unique, infused with love and personality that sets them apart.

When it comes to our sweater sizes, we are proud to offer designs featuring a positive ease of approximately 1-3 inches. This ensures a comfortable, relaxed fit that allows for ease of movement and layering. The circumference is measured with the sweater flat on a table at the chest after blocking, ensuring accurate sizing for every knit and crochet enthusiast.

For example, our pictured size 7/8 is modeled on an 8-year-old child, showcasing 1 inch of positive ease for added comfort. Each pattern is designed with thoughtful consideration so that it can grow with your child or provide a cozy, forgiving fit for all body types.

The gorgeous sample shown was made using Quince & Co. Osprey yarn, a high-quality and soft choice that enhances the beauty of the design. For those exploring different materials, we have included suggested substitute yarns below to help you create your perfect project.
