Hi everyone! Today I would like to share with you my new crochet cardigan pattern. I really love the combination of the lace pattern with plain parts of the cardigan. You can use any yarn you like and you can easily adjust the pattern to any size. So, let’s get started!

MATERIALS:

Yarn: Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/4 /Super Fine / 50 g (1.75 oz) / 170 m (186 yds) / 100% cotton – 220 grams, 5 skeins, #009

Crochet Hook: 3 mm

Gauge: 27 stitches, 38 rows to 10 cm/4 in

Size: S ->, length – 54 cm/21 in, width – 43 cm/17 in

Stitches used: ch – chain, sl st – slip stitch, sc – single crochet, hdc – half double crochet, dc – double crochet, tc – triple crochet, dc2tog – 2 double crochet stitches crochet together, sc2tog – 2 single crochet stitches crochet together

PATTERN:

Crochet an example of the main lace pattern and the border pattern. Only after that start your calculations.

Measure the fullest part of your chest. Divide the measurement by 2 – it’s your back part measurement. Then, divide the back part measurement by 2 and minus 2 cm or 1 in – it’s your front part measurement.

An example:

the fullest part of my chest 86 cm or 34 in, 86 cm (34 in) / 2 = 43 cm (17 in);

43 cm (17 in) –  the front and the back parts.

43 cm (17 in) / 2 = 21,5 cm (8 1/2 in);

21,5 cm (8 1/2 in) – 3 cm (1 in) = 18,5 cm (7 1/2 in)

18,5 cm (7 1/2 in) – 2 halfs of the front part.

Count how many rapports in 18,5 cm (7 1/2 in) and in 43 cm (17 in) (use the example). I got 3 rapports in 18,5 cm (7 1/2 in) and 6 rapports in 43 cm (17 in).

3 rapports x 14 + 5 = 47 chains – each front part

6 rapports x 14 + 5 = 89 chains – back part

FRONT PART (2 details)
