The Daylily Cardigan is designed to be your perfect everyday cardigan! It’s lightweight and super cozy. Knitted on larger than recommended needles, this cardigan has a beautiful lace-like drape without actually knitting lace! The pattern includes customizations to make it your perfect piece. Choose to add long sleeves or short sleeves. Choose a cropped length or longer length. You can even add a secret inset pocket, if you choose to!

My testers also tried using sport weight cotton and acrylic yarns. This created a fabric that was less draped, but turned out just as beautiful!
