The Lindsay Cardigan is a cozy wardrobe staple. It is perfect as an over-layer companion for indoors or an outside adventure. The fingering weight yarn held double is worked up in a loose gauge, which makes this a quick knit. This cardigan feels lightweight on the body, making this garment ideal for all occasions.
Construction:
The Lindsay Cardigan is a top-down cardigan worked flat starting with shaping the back neck, moving to raglan increases for working shoulders and sleeves, and body. The fronts are worked throughout the pattern to create fronts that slightly swing over each other. A-line shaping gives it a relaxed and boxy fit. The collar is picked up and worked after the body is complete.

Skills needed are: knowledge of top down cardigan construction, provisional cast-on, working a large amount of sts flat, basic increases and decreases and picking up stitches.
