Everyday Cardigan

A top-down, seamless-yoke sweater,featuring ribbing & seed stitch details,and minimal finishing.

Throw it over your favorite tee, layer it under a light Winter jacket, wrap it around you as you sit by the fire and watch the falling snow… This sweater is meant to be worn every day. Whether you’re sitting around the house in a t-shirt and jeans, or hitting the town in a corduroy skirt and boots, an Everyday Cardigan will be right at home.

Knit almost entirely in stockinette stitch, the pattern is straightforward enough for a relative beginner, but includes a little bit of ribbing and some seed stitch details to add visual interest.

If you are a new knitter, don’t let terms like “ribbing" and “seed stitch" scare you off – these are simply combinations of knits and purls. If you can do those two stitches, then you’ve got this!
