The Macrame cardigan is a beautiful textured aran/worsted weight cardigan which would look equally good worked up in wool or cotton, for either season.

The simple stitch pattern makes the garment interesting and quick to work up, while the optional bobble trim gives it a playful finish. There are also instructions for pockets included.

It is available in 6 sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL & XXL, to fit bust sizes 74cm up to 126cm. There are also instructions to work a shorter version. You will require 500g-700g of aran yarn, equivalent to 165m per 100g.

This is an intermediate crochet pattern, however the more complex stitches are explained in full. This pattern contains charts, schematics, photo tutorials and written instructions. The pattern uses a 5mm crochet hook.
