Lunara Cardigan

"If you’re looking for a light layer that shifts through texture and colour, the Lunara Cardigan might be your next favourite make. This short sleeve crochet cardigan pattern is designed for warmer days and cooler evenings — easy to wear, easy to style, and fun to crochet. The cardigan is worked flat in one piece up to the armholes, then split for the fronts and back — meaning minimal seaming and a smooth, comfortable fit across the shoulders. The design uses a softly shaped V-neckline for a flattering finish. The stitch patterns transitions from treble V-stitches to double mesh clusters, then into solid double crochet giving a beautiful texture. /DETAILS Skill level : Intermediate (shaping for the V-neck and a combination of stitches) US Terminology /MATERIALS DK Cotton #3 weight: 700, (770, 890, 1000, 1110, 1225) yds 5mm crochet hook (foundation chain) 4mm crochet hook (treble V-Stitch/double crochet and mesh cluster rows) 3.5mm crochet hook (double crochet rows after split for back and fronts) Tape Measure Stitch Markers Scissors Yarn Needle Optional 20mm button /FINISHED SIZE Size To Fit Bust Width Length Yarn (yds) S 30–34″ 34″ 20.5″ 700 yds M 34–38″ 38″ 20.5″ 770 yds L 38–42″ 42″ 21.5″ 890 yds XL 42–46″ 46″ 22″ 1000 yds 2X 46–50″ 50″ 22.5″ 1110 yds 3X 50–54″ 54″ 23″ 1225 yds /STITCHES AND ABBREVIATIONS USED Single Crochet Double Crochet Double Crochet Cluster Double Crochet 2 Together Treble V-Stitch Slip Stitch Chain/s (ch/s) Chain Space (ch-sp) Continue (cont) Each (ea) Remaining (rem) Repeat (rep) Right Side (RS) Skip (sk) Stitch/s (st/s) Wrong Side (WS)"
