I suppose you’re wondering who Scarlett is. Well, I’ll tell you. She is the little sister of the main character in the first novel I published, titled The Seer. It’s a contemporary fiction novel with a sci-fi twist and some other cool stuff. And throughout the course of the novel, the main character, Sterling, is knitting a pair of gray gloves for Scarlett. One day I decided that I wanted to find out what the gloves would look like. So I grabbed yarn and needles and got to work. Before I knew it, I had a finished design. And since then, I’ve added other patterns to the line.
This cardigan is a top-down raglan with a twist. Instead of the typical plain stitches between the raglan increases, I’ve put in braided cables. In fact, as you can see in the photos, those braids are all over this cardigan! And with the garter ridges as accents, I think it’s a pretty unique design. The instructions are written so that you can customize the fit of your cardigan as you go.
Scarlett's Cardi is a top-down raglan cardigan designed by independent designer Annie S. This knitted cardigan draws inspiration from the character Scarlett, the little sister of Sterling, the main character from Annie S.'s published novel The Seer, a contemporary fiction novel with a sci-fi twist. The cardigan is designed as a beginner-friendly knitting project using chunky yarn, making it an accessible pattern for knitters new to garment construction.
This cardigan employs a top-down raglan construction method, which allows knitters to work from the neckline downward to the hem. Rather than using plain stitches at the raglan increase lines, this design incorporates braided cables as a distinctive design element. The braided cables appear throughout the cardigan, creating visual interest and texture. Additionally, garter ridges are used as accents throughout the garment, contributing to the overall unique aesthetic of the piece.
This pattern is worked in chunky yarn weight, which creates a quick-knitting project suitable for beginners. The pattern requires standard knitting needles appropriate for chunky yarn.
Scarlett's Cardi is rated as a beginner difficulty pattern, making it an excellent choice for knitters who are new to cardigan construction or cable work. The chunky yarn weight contributes to the beginner-friendly nature of the project by working up quickly and being forgiving of tension inconsistencies.
This pattern is available as a downloadable PDF, allowing immediate access to the complete instructions and any accompanying charts or schematics.

I have hunted for a sweater pattern of this type of sweater for more than ten years. Not patient/skilled enough to design it myself. Thank you to Scarlet’s Cardinal. Hope to get started on utilizing the pattern soon.
