Wonky V Cardigan

This crochet pattern is for a men's button-up cardigan, with a textured stitch which I am choosing to call a Wonky V. The design has a large collar made of a simple rib (adjustable). Sleeves taper from the cuff to a flat join to body. I have used DK acrylic to make this sweater, specifically King Cole Camouflage DK, complimented by Stylecraft Special DK in Silver

The pattern includes details for seven chest sizes, six different lengths, and multiple sleeve sizes. Sizes given are for an oversized finished cardigan size, and the pattern gives details of suitable body sizes for each chest size.

The Wonky V is an easy stitch to make. It is made in the same way as a V-stitch (dc, ch, dc) but with a small sc making it wonky (sc, ch, dc). You will also notice that the other difference to a V-stitch is that each V is made in the sc, not the ch space.
