Colorful Cardigan Pattern
Simple slip stitch patterns are the basis for this colorful cardigan pattern. The cuff to center back construction creates a symmetrical design of vertical patterns; a flattering look for almost every figure.
Sidewise Cardigan - Skill Builder
Pick your own combination of five colors to create a bold statement or a subtle classic. The various slip stitch patterns are a great introduction to colored knitting while only needing to work with one color at a time. With eight sizes to choose from, this makes a great "Mommy & Me" type garment.
