Chunky Lace Cardigan Knitting Pattern

Katherine is a deep-V cardigan with chunky lace and ribbed sections that create a cozy and feminine shape. The bulky yarn makes this sweater perfect for layering in cold weather.

The Katherine Cardigan uses ribbing for striking hourglass shaping for the waist, mirrored in the wide fold-over neckline. The recommended hook and eye closure allows for customization in closure placement and number, so you can make this cardigan entirely your own.
