DIY Kit - Everyday Cardigan - Big Cotton
DIY Kit - Everyday Cardigan
Everyday Cardigan is knit in classic seed stitch- easily achieved by alternating knit and purl stitches to create the signature “seed” bumps. It is an easy-wearing cardigan knit flat from the bottom of the back panel up, over the shoulders, and down the front panels. You’ll pick up stitches for sleeves knit in the round before finishing the cardigan with a neckband and two front pockets. Buttons are an optional addition- and, due to the large gauge, there is no need to incorporate button holes!

Care: Hand wash or machine wash cold, tumble dry. Please test any washing/drying method on a small swatch to ensure you like the end result. As our cotton is chunky, un-mercerized, and minimally processed to preserve the fiber’s natural softness and elasticity, it is more prone to shedding. Washing and drying should help alleviate this. For further information and tips, please consult our Fiber Care Guide.
