A closet staple for cold weather as a cardigan, coat, or somewhere in between - the Weekend Waffle Cardigan is versatile in dressing up or down. This project combines easy crochet stitches for a beautifully textured, squishy, and meditative project. If you are feeling color adventurous, have fun with color blocking or make the sleeves in a different color than the body.
This is a purchase of digital pattern instructions to crochet this item, not a physical product.
construction
The panels and sleeves are worked flat from side to side in rows, creating the waffle stitch and the hem slip stitches in the same row. All pieces are sewn together inside out, turning right side out when all sewn and ends are woven in. Lastly, the slip stitch ribbing is added around the cardigan opening. There are written modification instructions for buttonholes and pockets.
