I designed this lovely cardigan with comfort and wearability in mind. The large buttons will be easy for little hands to grasp. The yarn is superwash so that the sweater can be worn and washed again and again.

The name of this piece pays homage to a certain mining game that has captured the heart of everyone in my home (including myself). The color of this yarn along with the texture put me in the mind of an ‘Underwater Temple’ a underwater part of the game with plenty of blues and teals. The adult sized version, Nether Brick Cardigan, is also available.

Details: The cardigan is worked as a top down raglan with a stand up collar. Button band is knit at the same time as the yoke and body. Stripes of smooth stockinette are alternated with slipped stitch sections that give a textured but sleek look. The hem and sleeves are finished with 2x2 ribbing. This design is suitable for an adventurous beginner.
