This beginner-friendly cardigan is worked from one side to the other, creating a unique construction that’s both engaging and approachable. Using only knit and purl stitches, you’ll build confidence as you learn garment construction without complicated techniques. Finished with neat ribbed edges, this cardigan is an effortless layering piece you’ll wear throughout the seasons.

Each piece, or side of the garment, are worked in one piece from sleeve cuff to center back. The two pieces are then joined at center back using the 3-Needle Bind-Off. Lower ribbing is picked up along the bottom hem and worked down.
