It’s Perfect Because It’s For Advanced Beginners

The perfect project to stitch for yourself challenges your skills a little bit but doesn’t cause you a lot of stress. This is a very straightforward, easy-knit cardigan pattern. However, there’s a twist – the argyle, which is made with intarsia knitting.

The argyle print isn’t difficult if you follow the video tutorials that are linked in the free pattern. The pattern also includes notes that will help you if you’re new to intarsia knitting. The combination of notes and video support should make working on this project relatively easy, even if you’re an advanced beginner.

Although it should be fairly easy, this knit argyle cardigan pattern gives you something special. This combination of an easy cardigan pattern along with a part of it that requires a little bit more focus is perfect for a stitch-for-you project.

It’s Perfect Because It’s Fun to Wear

When you stitch something for yourself, you should enjoy wearing it. The knit argyle cardigan pattern gives you a garment you should enjoy. The pops of color in the argyle print are statement-making.
