This knitting kit is perfect for beginners and within a matter of hours you can create your very own chunky stylish cardigan! You'll become so hooked on knitting this cardigan that you'll be wanting to knit one up in every colour!

This cardigan is a reworking of our most popular design but shorter, slouchier and with the options of an added pocket and wooden buttons. It uses a combination of knit and purl stitches, and should take around 10hours to complete (although it may take longer if you are a complete beginner)

Choose from 3 x sizes in the kit - Small fits UK 6-12, Medium fits UK 12-18 and Large fits UK 18-24. However, depending on how you like to wear your knitwear the sizes are pretty adaptable. For example, if you’d like it slouchy you can size up (see images: I’m a size 8-10 and the Lilac cardigan pictured is a Small, the fuchsia cardigan is a Medium. I personally prefer the fit of the Medium. Helen is a size 16 and wears the Fuchsia Medium and has also made a Large that is lovely and slouchy that she prefers the size of.) So once you’ve checked your tension, we recommend measuring one of your existing tops to see how it compares before you decide which size to knit (measurements below)
