Rita Wrap Cardigan

The Rita Wrap Cardigan is a cropped ruffle wrap-over cardigan with delicate filet detailing across the outline of the garment and cute little ruffle sleeves.

Rita is made in one panel, with the sleeves worked directly onto the body for minimal seaming. It’s worked with trebles and chains, so it makes the ideal garment for beginners and experienced crocheters alike. It’s designed to be made with cotton, but any plant-based yarn will achieve a similar drape. Both the sleeves and body panels can be altered for a longer or shorter fit, just add or remove stitches to the body and rows from the sleeves.

Bust sizes given as XS (S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X): 114 (123, 132, 141, 150, 159, 163, 168, 172) cm requiring 760 (822, 885, 970, 1035, 1143, 1204, 1299, 1364) metres) metres of DK-weight cotton yarn.

This pattern is available in both UK & US terminology so you don’t have to translate stitches! (UK: pp. 1-6, US: pp. 7-12.)
