Sirdar Catching Waves Cardigan Knitting Pattern

Whip up an adorable layer for a special little one with the Catching Waves Cardigan from Sirdar! With a waving lace pattern, alternating colors, and a classic drop-shoulder silhouette, this is a fresh take perfect for transitioning seasons! Three colors stripe throughout this project, with a fourth providing an additional pop of color and a tidy frame in the ribbed trims. Snuggly DK has been a favorite for generations, and it's easy to see why. With a machine-washable blend of acrylic and nylon that's soft and smooth, Snuggly DK also comes in a wide range of kid-approved colors from calming neutrals to bold brights. This v-neck cardigan is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Wrap up a little one in a colorful and cozy sweater with the Catching Waves Cardigan! Lace pattern is written out only.
