Rosebud Cardi is an intermediate knitting pattern for an open-front cardigan featuring beautiful lace and bobble statement sleeves.

The body is worked from the bottom up in one piece up to the underarms. The upper section is then divided into the Right Front, Back and Left Front, which are worked separately and seamed at the shoulders. The sleeves are picked up directly around the armholes and worked in the round.

The combination of Stockinette Stitch, delicate eyelet details and textured bobbles creates a feminine cardigan with distinctive statement sleeves. The front edges and neckline are finished with a simple 1×1 ribbed band.

Designed for a DK-weight yarn (approximately 200 m / 219 yds per 100 g), Rosebud Cardi combines a classic open-front silhouette with an eye-catching textured sleeve design.
