Need a new project for cozy season? You have to try knitting this cable-knit cardigan! This free pattern from Mama In A Stitch is the perfect project if you’re a beginner who wants to try cable knitting. It’s designed to be simple and quick, with straightforward pieces and minimal shaping.
You’ll knit the body and sleeves flat and then seam them up, which is a great, easy approach. If you’re an experienced knitter and want to skip the seaming, you can totally knit the sleeves in the round instead. Cable knitting might look complicated, but the clear instructions make it so much easier than you’d think. The finished cardigan is a loose-fitting, cozy layering piece that is perfect for chilly days. You’ll need some chunky #5 yarn, and the pattern comes in sizes from Small to XL.
