Maris Cardigan
About the Pattern
The Maris Cardigan is an oversized cardigan with a V-shaped front opening, featuring bold 3D ribbing panels created using a basket-weave stitch. The textured ribbing adds structure and visual interest while keeping the overall silhouette relaxed and wearable.
The cardigan is constructed from five separate panels that are worked top-down and then joined together, allowing for easy length adjustments and a clear, modular construction process.
The pattern includes written instructions, crochet charts, step-by-step photos, diagrams, and video tutorials for the more detailed sections.
