Pattern Level: Intermediate

Perfect for spring, summer and fall, this lightweight cotton cardi is something you MUST treat yourself to! Equally striking patterns of argyle and chevron lace combine to create interest, while the construction makes this piece truly special. The fronts are worked all as one piece, going up and over the neck, making this an easy pattern with no shaping. The end result is an open, swingy cardigan than can be worn over just about any outfit. Need some structure? Just close it up with a shawl pin, and you’re ready for the office. Get knitting now, because I’m sure this will be your go-to piece for warmer weather!

This pattern uses several patterned stitches, which is a bit of a challenge but the overall construction is quite easy. Some knowledge of the following would be helpful when using this pattern: basic knitting stitches, picking up stitches from an existing row, stretchy bind off, and basic lace knitting.
