For this crochet cardigan pattern you need to know how to crochet the houndstooth stitch , the half double crochet in back loop stitch and the double crochet cable. The crochet houndstooth stitch combines crocheting single and double crochet stitches. Each row of alternating single crochet stitch and the double crochet stitch is balanced on the following row by working singles into the top of the doubles and doubles into the top of the singles. The half double crochet in back loop stitch it’s the easiest stitch you can use as a ribbing and besides being very easy to crochet it looks beautiful and add texture to the overall patterning. Because I wanted to add something special to my pattern I’ve crocheted the cables and added on the sides. And I think this made the Harmony crochet cardigan to look very stylish, unique and elegant even if this simple crochet pattern uses basic stitches.

For my Harmony crochet cardigan I’ve used 550g (11 x 50 g) 100% mercerised cotton yarn and a 3.5 mm crochet hook.

The final dimensions of the Harmony crochet cardigan: 49 cm/19 inches width and 53 cm/ 19inches long.
