Zopflicious

Introducing the Zopflicious Cardigan - a beautifully designed, loose-fitting cardigan that celebrates the intricate beauty of cable knitting. This unique cardigan features a fascinating construction method: you will begin by casting on stitches from one cuff to the other. After completing the body, the only elements left to finish are the sleek sleeve cuffs, which are adorned with elegant ribbing. The majority of the cardigan is worked in delightful seed stitch, requiring you to switch the positions of knits and purls in each row. While this technique may require a bit of concentration, especially with the cables, the final result is undeniably rewarding and stylish!

This cardigan is designed to be worn with positive ease, making it an ideal choice for layering over your favorite outfits. When selecting your size, we recommend choosing one that allows for approximately 10 inches (25 cm) of positive ease at the bust circumference, giving you comfort and room to move.
