COCOON CROCHET CARDIGAN PATTERN AVAILABLE FOR SIZES XS - 5X!
When it comes to achieving that perfect blend of comfort, style, and handmade charm, the Embrace Cardigan checks all the boxes. This oversized, cozy cocoon cardigan is a timeless addition to your wardrobe. It’s also the ideal project for beginners looking to expand their crochet skills. Whether you’re snuggling up at home or layering it over your favorite outfit, this generously sized cocoon cardigan will quickly become your go-to piece for ultimate comfort.

This easy and beginner friendly cocoon cardigan is made from two rectangle panels that are seamed together to make one larger rectangle. Each panel features crochet ribbing on the bottom that are then seamed together. The ribbing is oriented at the bottom and top of the rectangle so that when the corners are folded in, you get one continuous ribbed collar! This design features simple repetitive stitches and a one row repeat for a relaxing and engaging project. Construction is easy with seaming in just a few places and squishy ribbed cuffs are added to the arm openings to finish the look.

The PDF pattern has clear instructions and a photo tutorial for every step; the photos are separate from the written instructions at the back of the PDF so you can choose not to print them to save printer ink.
