Oversized Cardigan Sweaters for Women

We knit this cardigan with a wide, unstructured body that falls straight down from dropped shoulders. The blue purple yarn has a soft, substantial hand without feeling heavy on the back. Deep patch pockets sit at the front panels, and ribbed edges keep the cuffs and hem neat.

What we would tell you in the studio

  • Blue purple yarn. The blue purple shade is dyed deep into the yarn before knitting. It shows subtle variation across the flat stitches and pairs cleanly with washed denim or neutral underlayers.
  • Roomy open front. We cut the front panels wide so they hang straight without pulling across the chest. The dropped shoulder seam sits low on the arm, creating extra room through the upper body.
  • Deep patch pockets. Two square pockets are knit directly onto the lower panels to hold small items. Their flat knit structure matches the body so they sit flush when empty.
  • Knit care guide. Wash this knit by hand in cool water or choose dry cleaning. Lay it flat on a clean towel to dry so the weight of wet yarn does not pull the body out of shape.

Living with this one

Do

  • Wash cold and on the gentle cycle, or by hand if the yarn feels loose.
  • Dry it flat, in shape, away from the radiator.
  • Fold it on the shelf rather than hanging it by the shoulders.
  • Measure a jumper you already like and compare it before you settle on a size.

Skip

  • Bleach and fabric softener, both of them flatten the surface.
  • The hot tumble dryer, which is how knit becomes one size smaller.
  • Hangers with thin shoulders, they leave two points that never come out.
  • Ironing directly on the face of the knit.
