Cardigan Knitting Patterns

For versatility, cardigans take some beating! Long, short, round neck, V-neck, raglan sleeve, plain, textured, collared to name but a few. Whatever your taste, or indeed need, our constantly evolving collection of cardigan knitting patterns keeps your wardrobe up to date and on trend.

Our pattern compilation includes popular 'cosy' chunky knit cardigan patterns which are designed with the warmth factor in mind using snuggly natural-fibre-based yarns. We also offer patterns for cardigans that are more akin to jackets, making them great for throwing on as a handy layer before venturing outside. We also have patterns in various colours including rainbow cardigan patterns or if you are looking for a short, dressier version that uses a lightweight luxury yarn? We offer those too.

Use the filters on our website to tailor (and streamline) your search. You can do this by brand (such as King Cole, Patons, Rowan, Noro, West Yorkshire Spinners), gender/recipient, yarn weight (lace/2 ply, 4-ply, DK, aran, chunky, super chunky), skill level, pattern format and pattern type (crochet or knitting). You can even search for free-to-download cardigan patterns!

Our novel pattern viewing experience enables you to see beyond pattern book covers, so feel free to explore the cardigan designs contained within!
