Coral Sleeves Cardigan — Simple Body, Show-Stopping Sleeves
The Coral Sleeves Cardigan is a study in beautiful contrasts — a clean, simple stocking stitch body with a deep V neckline, and sleeves that steal the show. Gently puffed and embellished with deceptively quick embroidery inspired by seaweed pods, the sleeves transform this cardigan from classic to truly one-of-a-kind.
Pattern Notes
The sleeves are knitted first in a simple rib, then embroidered to create the distinctive seaweed pod texture. The embroidery is quicker and easier than it looks — a wonderful technique to add to your making repertoire. The stocking stitch body and deep V neckline keep the rest of the pattern relaxed and straightforward.
