Silver Linings Cardigan
The Silver Linings Cardigan is a comfy, oversized DK-weight crochet cardigan with a knit-like appearance. This intermediate design is worked using a lot of slip stitches. The pattern includes step-by-step instructions with several pictures and videos throughout to aid in some of the trickier sections. It also includes instructions for a single-color version and a contrast ribbing version. There is also an in-depth sizing schematic and instructions on how to modify it to create your dream cardigan.
This cardigan is designed with 4”-7” (10-18 cm) of positive ease. If you would like a closer fitting cardigan, size down. The cardigan is written for the following sizes and are denoted throughout the pattern as 1 (2, 3, 4) 5 {6, 7, 8} 9.

Please know that while this pattern does not include any difficult stitches, it is not an easy pattern. Gauge is queen with this design and the slip stitches like to wreak havoc on it. Please be mindful of that fact when purchasing and making this pattern.
The teal version was made using Sunshine Queen Fiber Arts’ Moana Tweed DK. The grey version was made using The Yarn Collective Bloomsbury DK.
