A cardigan pattern that you can throw on as casually as a shawl.

It features a seamless, top‑down construction worked from the neckline toward the hem, with no sewing required. As a new technique, the pattern also introduces a cast‑on method that uses a stitch‑saver tube.

To create a beautiful drape when worn, stitches are increased with yarn overs to form a shape similar to an isosceles triangle. In addition to the sample’s three‑quarter sleeves, instructions for short sleeves and long sleeves are also included.

This lightweight cardigan is perfect to have on hand for seasonal transitions or for staying comfortable in air‑conditioned spaces. Its airy, easy‑to‑wear style also makes it a great travel companion.
