Year 3’s official Cocoknits KAL pattern is the versatile and endlessly customisable Toni Cardigan!
Knit using the Cocoknits Method, Toni is a V-Neck cardigan with customisation options galore!
• Two types of incorporated button bands (Version A: garter, Version B: rib),
• Two types of colour-blocking
• Two types of pockets (Version A: knitted as you go, Version B incorporated with bottom front ribbing)
• Two different lengths.
Pick and choose the parts you like to make it your own!
There are also directions for optional bust darts using short-row shaping are written into the pattern. (The bust darts help keep the lines from riding up so the colour blocking remains horizontal and gives a bit more ease on the cardigan Fronts.)
See it on RAVELRY.
This is the perfect opportunity to learn the Cocoknits Method. Unlike most traditional patterns that create flat shapes, the tailored style of construction in these patterns creates truly three dimensional garments that impart a great fit upon completion.READ MORE ABOUT THE COCOKNITS METHOD ➜ (including video tutorials)
