Bouclé Party

The Bouclé Party cardigan is designed for bouclé yarn, which knits up quickly and creates a fun, textured surface. The button bands and edges are made with smooth yarn to create a neat contrast. This cardigan is designed with leftover yarn in mind: it uses three main colors that are evenly striped. Of course, you can also knit the cardigan in a single color or with just two colors.Tutorials for the techniques can be found on Meiju Knits YouTube channel.
