The Casey Cardigan with Pockets is a loose fitting, hip length cardigan, made in 5 pieces: 2 sleeves, 2 front panels, and a back panel. Each piece begins by crocheting the ribbing/cuffs. The sleeves will be worked in continuous rounds from the bottom up. The front and back panels are worked in rows from the bottom up, with the pockets being worked in by attaching yarn to front panels. Once the 5 pieces are sewn together, a neckline trim will be added to complete your cardigan.

This pattern is written in the following sizes: X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X.
