Let’s kick off the new year with a brand new crochet design, The Star-Crossed Cardigan Crochet Pattern! I wanted to start off strong with a cardigan design using Heartland yarn. You might remember my Stony Shore Cardigan and my Kiah Cardigan, both are very popular and well loved and both use Heartland yarn! I knew I needed something to add to the collection of my popular cardigans!
The Star-Crossed Cardigan crochet pattern is very beginner friendly and uses basic shapes. Once you nail the “double crosses spike” stitch you will work this cardigan up easy peasy! It’s basically a combination of all double crochet stitches with the ribbing using single crochet. You will work the panels from the bottom up and sew together.
Did you notice the Star-Crossed Cardigan crochet pattern has pockets?! The best part is that the pocket swatch is your gauge swatch. So feel free to jump ahead in the pattern and make a pocket swatch before starting. You will then use that swatch to measure 4×4″ within. Save it for later when you are required to seam to the inside of your cardigan!
I hope you guys enjoy this sweater pattern! Any worsted weight yarn will work for this one. My favorite part of this sweater is the wide neckline! I love seeing and posting your finished work so please tag me on Instagram! And don’t forget to pin! 🙂
