If you’re in the mood for an easy sweater pattern, you really can’t beat the simple construction of a cocoon cardigan sweater. It’s hard to believe that a basic rectangle can produce such a cozy, relaxed shape, isn’t it? But it’s true! So whether you’re newer to crochet, or you just want a mindless project that will add something beautiful to your wardrobe, give this one a try.

For reference, my model is wearing the XS/S/M size with a petite modification. The petite modification, which is noted within the pattern, removes 4” from the overall length. That’s helpful when you’re only 4’9!
