It’s Teatime! So obviously that means you need The Teatime Cardigan crochet pattern! This cardigan pattern gives all the cozy vibes. The Teatime cardigan features fun stripes using a unique blend of stitches, giving it a collegiate look. It has a slightly oversized fit with balloon style sleeves. There are so many color options to fit your style!
The construction of this cardigan is pretty beginner friendly. I do use a few different stitches for the stripes that you may have not used before but don’t be afraid! I have a full video tutorial on how to do these stitches if you need a little bit of extra help. They really are very simple to do once you get them down. The same stitch repeat is used on all of the panels.
One of the fun things about this cardigan is picking out the color combo that you want! There are so many options to do and I can’t wait to see what everyone picks! I used Color Theory yarn for my cardigan and I do have a kit available! You can customize the yarn colors if you purchase the kit. I have a couple of tips when working with stripes. When you change colors at the end of each row, you can crochet the next row directly over the tails of yarn for less ends to weave in! You can also crochet your trim directly over the tails of yarn. I like to tie my tails in a knot first before doing so.
Another great thing about The Teatime cardigan is the length is easy to adjust! You can simply add more rows to both the back and front panels if you want your cardigan longer. If you want it cropped, just remove rows. Do the same amount of rows to all 3 panels before fastening off.
