This is a crochet pattern only, not a finished product.

The Deadly nightshade cardigan is a super soft, light, lacy and striped cardigan. It is the first piece in my new collection where I name designs after poisonous plants in hopes that you’ll get a confidence boost while wearing it and feel fierce.

Info:

  • beginner friendly
  • made-to-measure
  • takes me 2 days to make
  • this pattern uses US terminology

Materials:

  • yarn: I used 1 cone of 100 % cotton sequin yarn (200 g/600 m, fingering weight) and 3 skeins of lace weight mohair/silk blend yarn. I bought the yarn in a Danish store (Woolstock.dk), but the label says “ZLWXL”.
  • Crochet hook: 4 mm larger than the size listed by the yarn. I used size 6,5 mm. If you want a less lacy look, you can use a slightly smaller size.
  • Yarn needle: you will need the needle to sew the sleeves and the body panel and I help you through the process.
  • Other materials: scissors and stitch markers (optional).

Skills needed:

  • chaining
  • single crochet
  • double crochet

Right after purchasing, you will receive a downloadable PDF copy of this pattern and a lookbook.
