Chunky crochet, without being boxy, for the perfect silhouette cardigan in Elixir 16 ply! Stylish, comfy and warm, and with two length options, this Eva crochet cardigan pattern will be flying off your hook!
Bottom band is constructed first, then worked in one piece up to armholes. Front and back are worked separately. For sleeves, the bands are worked first, then rest of sleeves. Sleeves are attached, then the front band is worked separately, before seaming or crocheting to join to the cardigan.
