Summer Cardigan with Three-Quarter Sleeves Knitting Pattern – Naturally N1815

This relaxed, boxy summer cardigan is knitted from the top down in AMANO Palma, a breathable organic cotton Aran/10 ply yarn. Raglan increases shape the yoke, the body is worked flat with integrated garter-stitch front bands, and the three-quarter sleeves are completed in the round.

The generous fit and simple stocking-stitch fabric make this an easy layering cardigan for warmer weather and changing seasons. The pattern includes six adult sizes from XS to 2XL and is photographed in AMANO Palma shade Ceniza 2908.
