The DRK Everyday Cardigan is one of those patterns to take your time with but once you finish it, you’ll be reaching for it over and over again.
As Andrea Mowry the designer says, this is the cardigan she grabs for – to get cozy, to throw on as a light jacket, or to finish an outfit comfy enough for every day and polished enough for the office or date night.
It is knitted from the top down, beginning with the folded collar. It can be worn with either the knit or purl side facing out. The raglan “seams” from the yoke are carried all the way down to the hem of the cardigan. The body is knit flat, and the sleeves are knit in the round. The button band is worked using an applied double knit technique for a beautifully polished finish!
You should be comfortable knitting, purling, working ribbing and knitting in the round, including small-circumference knitting using either Magic Loop or double-pointed needles.
I will guide you through every stage of the pattern – understanding the techniques, solving problems as they come up and knitting with confidence. In between the sessions, you can also refer to Andrea’s video tutorials covering techniques used in the pattern.
By the end of the sessions, you should have your cardigan well underway if not completed, depending on your knitting pace – and a much stronger understanding of all the various techniques, with the skills to continue your cardigan independently. I also hope you will feel confident about taking on future garment projects without hesitation.
I will provide you with the pattern and I am happy to help you pick the yarn in advance of the sessions at a 10% discount from our shop.
You will need 3.75mm and 3.255mm needles, 7-9 buttons and 10 stitch markers.
Important: If you cancel your booking a refund can only be given if your spot is taken by someone else so please give as much notice as possible.
