About this pattern

If you've never made a garment before, this is the one I'd hand you. It's an open, lacy cardigan that's trendy and easy, and it only uses basic stitches.

It's worked flat, seamed down the arms and sides, and finished with ribbing around the front opening. It uses sport weight yarn, the pattern is written in US and UK terms, and a video tutorial is included so you're never on your own.

Why you'll love it

  • Open lace look with only basic stitches
  • Ribbing frames the front opening
  • Light and breezy for layering
  • Beginner friendly and great for trying something new

I am a beginner and I struggled with this pattern. I just omitted the picot stitch and the pattern is much easier for me. The pattern is great and the video tutorial is always helpful. Looking forward to seeing the finished product!
