Coziness is one of the pillar of my lifestyle. I make myself a good cup of tea, I pick a blanket and a cozy cardigan and I sit by the window. I immensely enjoy watching the snow fall on the sidewalk, quickly covering the footsteps of the passer-by. However, spring is always in my thoughts, pretty flowers, pretty colors… and I wish winter was as graceful as spring.

Freesia Cardigan combines both the coziness required for winter and the elegance of spring. It’s worked from the top-down with DK weight yarn. It has raglan sleeves, a soft v-neck, and is fastened with buttons. The front features lace panels mixing bobbles with mock-cables, and raglan seams are embellished with an interesting lace pattern. The pattern is available in 12 sizes from 32.25” to 60.75” of bust circumference.

Many thanks to everyone who bought the pattern during the launching period, during which I was giving a percentage of the sales to help families of Ukraine, via Unicef Canada. Today (May 2, 2022), I sent a donation of $130 that will be matched by an anonymous donor.


Le confort est l’un des piliers de mon mode de vie. Je me prépare une tasse de thé, je prends une couverture et un cardigan bien chaud, et je m’installe près de la fenêtre. J’adore regarder la neige tomber sur le trottoir, recouvrant rapidement les traces des passants. Pourtant, le printemps est toujours dans mes pensées, les jolies fleurs, les jolies couleurs… J’aimerais que l’hiver ait la grâce du printemps.

Le cardigan Freesia combine le confort requis pour l’hiver avec l’élégance du printemps. Il est tricoté de haut en bas avec un fil de grosseur léger (3 / DK). Il a une emmanchure raglan, un col en V délicat, et il est attaché à l’aide de boutons. Le devant est orné de panneaux de dentelle faits de nopes et de faux-cables. Les coutures du raglan sont décorées d’un simple motif ajouré. Le patron est disponible en 12 tailles, entre 82 et 155 cm au buste.
