I dreamt up my version of this cozy, oversized cardigan while on a trip to Colorado last January. My friend was wearing one and as soon as I saw it, I immediately set out to design the perfect pajama cardigan! Forget about your robe, this is a go-to sweater you’ll want to throw on over your jammies or wear to the store as a casual layering piece.

Materials needed:
Yarn:
6 (6, 7, 7)8, 8, 9, 9, 10 skeins of Mungo by Rosa Pomar of Retrosaria (made in Portugal) in color Fossil (002). Each skein has 100 g/220 m/240 yds and is 50% recycled wool and 50% recycled cotton. This yarn works PERFECTLY for this pajama cardigan! You can also use 1,440-2,400 yards of any wool/cotton blend yarn in worsted wt.

Needles:
US size 3/3.25 mm + US size 6/4 mm (32”/80 cm or 40”/100 cm) circular needles and dpns (for the sleeves). You can also use circular needles in place of the dpns to knit the magic loop method.
