About this pattern

This cardigan is pure cozy with a pop of color. The relaxed fit and hood make it the one you'll throw on for every cool morning, and that gemstone band at the hem is a fun little jewel tone moment.

It's worked in the granny stitch, with a four color gemstone band along the hem. You'll add patch pockets (because pockets are everything), plus ribbed cuffs and front bands for a polished finish. It's a great way to show off a few colors without committing to full colorwork.

Why you'll love it

  • Four color gemstone band that brightens up the hem
  • A hood for extra coziness
  • Patch pockets for your hands, phone or stitch markers
  • Ribbed cuffs and front bands for a neat finish

I really enjoyed making this sweater and the styling and fit are very nice. The yarn choice has a nice draping and feel

I modified the pattern a bit and made it shorter without a hood. Turned out pretty nice I think.

I'm just starting this pattern but so far it's easy and fun! I did adjust the colors along the bottom and just did rows but it still looks great so far!
