The Duplicity Cardigan is very beginner friendly, with little to no shaping. The crochet cardigan is easily versatile and can be made with one color or, as I have, made with two of your favorite colors! In addition to being able to switch up the colors, the Duplicity beginner crochet cardigan is intentionally designed with bulky weight yarn, to make a faster make! That way you can spend more time flaunting the drip of your new crochet cardigan than making it!

BLOCKED GAUGE: With 10.00 mm Hook and Berroco: Lanas Quick Wool, 11sts by 10 rows of modified Grit Stitch. (5”by 5” square)

PATTERN NOTES: This pattern uses American crochet terms. The Duplicity crochet cardigan is worked by first completing a series of panels. Next, optionally blocking these panels. Then assembling these panels together, before finally adding the ribbing for the piece.
