Cloudy Balloon Cardigan – Pattern Notes

This cardigan is designed with a relaxed oversized fit and soft balloon sleeves, creating a modern and effortless silhouette.

The pattern is beginner friendly and worked in half fisherman’s rib, giving the fabric a fluffy, airy texture while remaining light and comfortable to wear.

The cardigan is knit flat in separate pieces (back, front panels and sleeves) and seamed together at the end. A simple button band with integrated buttonholes completes the look.
