The Cardigan Combo - Waist-length
Want a pattern for nine different versions of a Tunisian Crochet cardigan? Choose from three lengths: a cropped waist-length, everyday hip-length, or comfortable longline. You also have a choice of creating a cardigan with 2 pockets, one pocket, or no pockets. Cardigans for every occasion!
This Ravelry page features all of the information about the Waist-length version, but when you buy this pattern, you will get an ebook which includes how to make the Hip-length and Longline versions too.
Here are the Ravelry links for the other versions:
With this pattern, you can make nine versions of a long-sleeved shawl-collared cardigan, featuring textured Tunisian Purl stitch cuffs and hem to contrast the Tunisian Simple Stitch sleeves and body, and trendy split hems. All of the pieces are made flat, then joined together with Flat Crochet Slip-stitch Seams. The shawl-collar is then worked onto the cardigan with a long Tunisian Crochet Hook.
A photo-tutorial is provided on how to work the horizontal inset pockets.
EXAMPLES
The examples I have made are a waist-length version without pockets (shown in blue), a hip-length version with a pocket on the right (shown in turquoise), and a longline version with 2 pockets (shown in magenta). All examples shown with 6 inch positive ease.
