When I say I’m obsessed with the feather stitch, I mean I’m obsessed! I love the texture, the thickness, and how it works up effortlessly once you get the hang of it. The only downside? It is a YARN EATER!

Once I knew what stitch I wanted to use it led to the idea of designing a cardigan in as few pieces as possible. This cardigan is worked cuff-to-cuff almost entirely in one piece other than the pockets. The ribbing is worked onto the cardigan rather than sewn on. Removeable stitch markers will be your friend throughout the pattern.

Sizes XS (S, M, L, 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X) correspond to garment chest measurements 34 (37, 41.5, 46, 50, 54.5, 59, 63, 67.5) inches/ 86.5 (94, 105.5, 117, 127, 138.5, 150, 160, 171.5) cm

Recommended Yarn
Yarn Bee: Simply Flawless (100% Low Pill Acrylic; 420yds/384m per 7oz/198g skein); color Olive; 4 (5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8) skeins

Yarn is a 4-ply but is not dense. Pattern stitch looks best in a solid or nearly-solid color.

OR

Any light weight to worsted weight yarn that yield the design gauge can be used. Pick the lightest-weight yarn that achieves the correct gauge to avoid the sweater being too heavy to wear.

Recommended Hooks
J-10 US/6mm hook
H-8 US/5mm hook
