If you purchase 5 patterns from my Ravelry Store at the same time (add them all to your cart before you check out), the least expensive one will be free.

Whether you’re chilling on the couch or dancing after butterflies, this carefree cardigan will be your comfortable companion.

Chasing Butterflies has a relaxed fit and three-quarter sleeves, and the construction – like the wearing – is simple.

It’s worked in one piece from the top down in an easy textured stitch, with garter cuffs and hem, and a garter stitch band worked onto the body.

Knit it up in Traveller DK from Dragonfly Fibers, a 100% merino wool with gorgeous color gradients.
