This cardi is SO COZY and so so simple to make. It is perfect for beginners, but also easy to add stripes and the likes for a more advanced version. Have so much fun with this pattern!

This oversized cardigan is written in five sizes, distributed as XS (S, M, L, XL). Each size is designed to fit bust sizes 28-36 (36-44, 44-52, 52-60, 60-68) inches, with 6-14 inches of positive ease per size. The finished bust measurements are 42 (50, 58, 66, 74) inches. I recommend choosing the size that best suits your negative/positive ease preferences.

When finished, the cardigan measures 24 inches long. Note that this is easily customizable! Also, because this is a crocheted bulky-weight cardigan, it is likely that it will stretch lengthwise with wear.
