Texture Garden Cardigan
Texture Garden Cardigan was inspired by patchwork without seaming! It’s all about mix-matching colors and texture to create your own unique piece for your wardrobe.
It’s a stash busting design! Even if you run out of yarn. Maybe it’s your main color or the contrasts ones. No worries! This pattern is all about mixing/matching. So many ways to combine colors and the different stitch types.
- You can follow the instructions but not follow the color placement.
- You can bring in leftover yarn if you’re just missing that little bit.
- If you’re sick of knitting a certain stitch, you can change it to any of the other stitch types as long as it’s close to the intended row count to not change any of the measurements
