Evie Cardigan

"With handy pockets, a cozy hood, and a secure button closure, the Evie cardigan is not just fashionable, it’s super functional for daily wear! Designed with an oversized fit and crocheted in soft chunky yarn, this cardigan is a fabulous layering piece that checks all the boxes for comfort. Instructions included for altering the length, leaving off the button band and hood. Perfect for wearing on spring days as a jacket or you can layer during cooler months, you’ll get plenty of wear out of your cardigan. /DETAILS Skill level : Easy (see pattern for techniques) US Terminology /MATERIALS Chunky Yarn; 1076, (1143, 1214, 1290, 1372, 1424) yards 6mm / J-10 Crochet Hook Buttons (recommended 30mm diameter) X 4 Stitch Markers Scissors Yarn Needle A note about the recommended yarn in the pattern - rated as Aran weight, on testing the wraps per inch, Scheepjes Chunky Monkey falls in the middle of chunky range /FINISHED SIZE To Fit (inches) Width approx.
