The Morning Coffee Cardigan

I’ve been making a lot of striped things lately if you haven’t noticed! When I saw a striped blanket at target with a similar color palette I knew I had to get my hands on some yarn and make something with it! I debated between a cardigan and a blanket for a bit but wasn’t a hard choice to go with a cardi! That’s how The Morning Coffee Cardigan came about!

The Morning Coffee Cardigan is a VERY beginner friendly pattern. It has no shaping and minimal seaming. I decided to add in some optional shaping only at the forearms. This cardigan is designed to have loose cuffs/sleeves. I know that some people prefer to have there sleeves tapered so I added that option just in case!

I also recommend leaving the tails of yarn long enough on the sides of the front/back panel so that you can use these to sew your panels together. This will help cut down on the ends you need to weave in. Another tip is when you are crocheting the trim, that you crochet directly over the ends of yarn. This way you can skip the weaving process.
