Easy Cashmere Cardigan

An easy cardigan knitting pattern for a timeless raglan cardigan in cashmere. Seamless construction, simple finishing and a neckline you can shape to your own preference.

I wanted to create a classic cardigan that would be enjoyable to knit, even if you have limited experience knitting garments. The result is a timeless design with a clever construction, no seams and very little finishing.

An easy cardigan to knit – with no seams

Prefer a higher, closer-fitting neckline? Or a deeper, more open one? The choice is yours.

Choose your favourite yarn

The original version is knitted in 100% Italian cashmere, creating an incredibly soft, lightweight and elegant cardigan.

This is a cardigan you’ll reach for again and again. A timeless wardrobe staple that’s just as beautiful worn with jeans as layered over a dress.

Beskrivning

Easy Cardigan Knitting pattern

The cardigan is worked flat from the bottom up on circular needles, with the front, back and front knitted as one piece. The sleeves are knitted separately and then joined to the body on the same needle. The yoke is worked as one piece, with straightforward raglan decreases.

There are no seams to sew together and no knitted button bands to pick up afterwards. The front edges are simply finished with a crocheted edging and crocheted button loops. If you prefer traditional knitted button bands instead of the crocheted edging, you can easily add them. Just allow for one extra ball of yarn.

Choose your own neckline

One of my favourite features of this construction is that you can easily try the cardigan on as you knit. The neckline isn’t shaped until the very end, so you can decide for yourself how wide or narrow you would like it to be.

Needles: 3 mm and 3.5 mm circular needles (60 or 80 cm)

+ 3.5 mm double-pointed needles for the sleeves

or the needle size required to obtain the correct gauge.

Gauge: 23–24 stitches in stocking stitch = 10 cm on 3.5 mm needles before washing.

Cashmere naturally relaxes and stretches slightly after washing and wear, giving a finished gauge of approximately 22 stitches = 10 cm.

If your knitting is too tight, you may run short of yarn, so be sure to check your gauge carefully before continuing.
