Lightweight crochet cardigan pattern for beginners and pros alike. Available in US women’s sizes XS-XXL.

This lightweight cardi was designed to fill the cardigan void in all the seasons beyond winter.
It’s lacey and breathable so it’s so comfy from spring through to the fall.

It’s very easy to make, even if this is your first attempt at making crochet clothes. If you love trendy crochet garments that are easy to make, this is definitely for you.

The pattern is made in two pieces, a left half and right half (including the sleeve), made exactly the same. That means we’ll be crocheting the front and back at the same time basically.

Materials
I used Holst Garn Titicaca thin alpaca in color crown #0 lace weight yarn but I held 2 stands together, so that’ll equal #1 fingering weight
4mm crochet hook
Scissors
Yarn needle
Stitch marker

Skill: Easy

Notes:
This pattern uses English (US) Terminology
This pattern made as women’s sizes XS( S, M, L, XL, XXL )
This cardigan is worked flat in 2 separate pieces and then sewn together (2 panels are made the same)
This pattern is in multiples of 2 ch
In this picture I have demonstrated with size small

Yarn needed: 2440( 2600, 2800, 2960, 3160, 3320) yards of #0 lace weight. If you’re using #1 fingering weight, cut the yardage in half plus a little extra (just to be safe)

Gauge blocked: 23 st X 10 rows = 4” In main stitch pattern, row 12 and 13 is a main stitch pattern repeat.
To make a gauge swatch, ch 30 or an even number and then crochet row 1-27
