Crochet pattern “Audrey” is beginner-friendly pattern with videos* for 3 variations of length for a women’s cardigan with long sleeves, no buttons and optional color combinations for 5 adult sizes.

To help you choose the size I give measurements for each one:

Bust (cm) 80-84 84-88 88-92 92-96 96-100 for sizes XS-S/S/S-M/M-L/L-XL correspondingly

Bust (in) 31-33 33-35 35-36 36-38 38-39 for sizes XS-S/S/S-M/M-L/L-XL correspondingly

This is both a line-by-line pattern, which is convenient to use if you obtain gauge/tension and an algorithm for making the cardigan using your own gauge/tension and calculations. Both charts and written instructions are given. As all of my patterns, this one is written in 2 versions of crochet terms: US and UK ones in 2 separate files for your convenience 30 pages each (both are included in the purchase).

Each file contains:

  • sizes and measurements
  • gauge/tension calculations
  • stitch key
  • main steps with lots of photos, diagrams, calculations and VIDEOS.
  • blocking and care tips.

The cardigan is made in pieces which are sewn together after they’re done.
