Keep it Simple Cardi Kit (Yarn + Pattern)

The Keep It Simple Cardi is exactly as it is titled: a simple and elegant middle-length cardigan that is sure to become a staple in your fall and winter wardrobe. The pattern features a panel construction method with seaming only in the shoulders and for the pockets (which are optional). You can choose the difficulty level of the trim stitches in the cuffs, body, and pockets to suit your crochet skill level. The cardi has a very natural, “just-right” positive ease throughout the bust and sleeves - not too tight but also not too baggy. Because of the options within, this pattern is suitable for the beginner to intermediate crocheter with several tutorials and visual supports available including images, schematics, and videos.

This listing is for one kit, with the required number of skeins, to make your very own cardi! All skeins will be dyed on our Deep Freeze DK base.
