The Banbury Oversized Drape Crochet Cardigan is a beautiful draping cardigan with long sleeves and ribbing on the bottom and at the cuffs. It features a simple neckline and opening and is designed to be oversized. The cardigan is suitable for beginners. There are no button holes or buttons used for this pattern.

The Cardigan is made by first crocheting a back panel ribbing and then crocheting the main back panel. We will then crochet two front panels, starting with the ribbing and this will make up the front of the cardigan. This is not a close shut cardigan so we will not be crocheting button holes or attaching buttons. We will then crochet the sleeve panels starting with the cuff and then crochet the sleeve panel until it reaches the required length. Finally we will seam the two front panels and the back panels at the shoulder and then seam sleeves directly on to the panels.

This is a free and easy crochet pattern available as a size inclusive made to measure pattern. It is beginner friendly, very simple and uses weight 5/bulky/chunky yarn. This pattern can also accommodate for different gauges.
