Knit your way to cozy elegance with the Deluxe Cardigan, a modern and slightly oversized design perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re looking to elevate your wardrobe or create a timeless, hand-made piece, this pattern will guide you through each step. 🧶

Pattern Overview:
The Deluxe cardigan is worked back and forth, starting from the bottom up in one piece to the underarms. Once at the underarms, the fronts and back are divided and worked separately, up to the lowest point of the shoulder lines. From here, the fronts and back are joined again and knitted up to the neckline, shaping the shoulder lines.

The Button Band stitches are then picked up and knitted along the fronts and back neck, worked back and forth for a clean, polished finish. The sleeves, with a flattering 7/8 length, are picked up at the underarms and knitted in the round down to the cuffs.
