Introduction

This is a cardigan made with the 6-Day Kid Blanket stitches (Granny Square Edition).
It is created with two three-dimensional hexagons that are folded in half and sewn together.

This pattern is adaptable, and intended for you to design your own unique garment. It is more of a recipe than a pattern and your willingness to get creative is the key ingredient. It is possible to make this cardigan in a variety of sizes with any yarn you like. I give options to add width, length, cuffs, ribbing, button band, hood, collar, and pockets.
