The flower box cardigan is a boxy cardigan with a textured check design, balloon sleeves, and front ties. The pattern includes:

• Graded sizing
• Written instructions
• Supplementary photos for every section
• Drawn diagrams (front & back panels, sleeves, and duplicate stitching) for every size

Please note that THIS IS NOT A PHYSICAL PRODUCT; IT IS A KNITTING PATTERN.

Notes:

• Language: English
• Terminology: US
• Level of difficulty: intermediate knitters and up (however, beginner/advanced beginner knitters have tested this pattern & have said it’s quite beginner-friendly). Still, I recommend familiarizing yourself with basic knitting terminology & easier projects via YT before starting this one. :)
• Skills: knitting in the round and flat, 3-needle bind-off (you can use a different bind-off technique if desired, 2x2 rib, duplicate stitch, K2TOG, SSK

Sizes:

• Bust: 35.5” (90cm); 39” (99cm); 42.5” (108cm); 46” (117cm); 49.5” (126cm); 53” (135cm); 56.5” (143.5cm); 60” (152.5cm)
• Sleeve width for all sizes is: 10” (24.5cm)
• Cardigan length and sleeve length are not provided because they’re customizable.

Materials:

• Worsted/aran/size 4 yarn. I used Hobbii Tweed Delight in colors 13 (geranium pink), 17 (candy apple red). I used about 730m of geranium pink & 200m of candy apple red (where 50g = 100m).
• 5mm needles (or any size that meets the gauge with your tension). You will need 60cm & 30cm (or longer) circular needles or double-pointed needles for the sleeves.
• 5mm crochet hook (if you plan on making the ties at the front of the cardigan).
• Tape measure
• Stitch markers
• Scissors & yarn needle

I would love to share your work on my page as it brings me insurmountable joy that someone has made a cardigan using this pattern. ♡
It is only fair that credit goes where credit is due. This is not gatekeeping. It is respecting and recognizing the work a creative has put into creating a pattern. Because you have bought this pattern does not make it yours nor does it mean you should treat the design as if it is yours.
