PATTERN NOTES
“All Aligned” is a seamless top-down cardigan with raglan shaping and lots of texture.

Open-front cardigans are my favorite because they are so versatile! For this one, I used yarn by Julia Asselin which had beckoned from my stash for a while. I especially like its color. In this cardigan, I combined it with an extra lace strand in a similar colorway, which gives it just the right amount of heaviness.

Increases and decreases are cleverly hidden in the simple texture pattern with clear brioche lines. Due to the brioche, this stitch pattern is rather yarn-consuming – make sure you have enough for the whole garment!

All shaping is charted, and the main stitch is also written out row by row.
