Effie Raglan Cardigan
Introduction
This is a PDF crochet pattern for a versatile raglan cardigan.
This pattern comes with pictures.
This crochet pattern is size-inclusive and aimed toward intermediate crocheters or confident beginners.
Sizing
There are four sizes included on this pattern, with support to adjust to your desired length.
The sizes includes are: 2XS/XS (S/M,L/XL,2XL/3XL).
The circumference of the bust options are as follows: 30 (38,48,54) inches.
This pattern is designed to give between 0-2” positive ease depending on your bust size.
Please do also check your gauge and feel free to size up or down accordingly. The length can also be easily changed if you wish to make a longer or shorter version. If you are between sizes, please feel free to size up or down your hook and yarn weight.
Size adaptation example:
The short sleeve red version in the listing photos used a 5mm crochet hook and followed the pattern size 2XS/XS but the finished cardi is a size medium.

Fingering weight / 4-ply yarn. I used sostrene grene 8/4 cotton for the rainbow cardi (50g=175 yards)
Amount needed: 1440 (1660,1920,2080) yards

The effie raglan cardigan is crocheted top down, separating for the body and sleeves. There are optional colour changes and support to add ribbing. There is minimal sewing involved.
