This great cardigan pattern is a design signed by Andrea Yetman! The Grandfather cardigan is a timeless classic that will never go out of style! It has been a desire of mine for some time to design and knit this style of a cardigan and with a little help from Hedwig, Harry Potter’s owl, I was finally able to take my vision and knit it up! How did I knit exactly what I had pictured in my mind? I don’t know…Maybe there was a little magic in my knitting needles

PATTERN NOTES
Hedwig is a Grandfather style cardigan knit seamlessly from the top down. The 2x2 ribbed cuffs and hem are worked using 2 strands of yarn for a bulky effect. Stitches are picked up and knit in Garter Stitch around the front of the cardigan at the end, as well as Short Rows to raise the back neck of the collar. A Patch Pocket is added after the cardigan is knit with an adorable cabled owl. To see a tutorial on how to add a Patch Pocket, click HERE.
