The Tulip Cardigan is a soft, floral-inspired layering piece that feels like wearing a bit of spring. Designed with gentle texture and flowing stitches that mimic blooming tulips, it’s light, breathable, and perfect for warmer days or breezy evenings. The fit is adjustable so you can make it in whatever size like! It’s one of those pieces that feels special to make and even more special to wear, whether you’re dressing it up or cozying in.

Square brackets indicate the pattern and the number of times it is repeated e.g. sc 1, inc x 6 means single crochet one stitch, increase in the next stitch. Repeat 6 times.

The vertical tulip stripes are formed by repeating the green and pink rows every 4 rows.
