Petra Easy Scrap Yarn Crochet Cardigan

This is Kiks + Jack Crochet’s first scrappy yarn garment…well sort of. We haven’t had that much success with scrap yarn projects in the past. It was more the case that our scrap yarn just didn’t look great together. As much as we love “not wasting” yarn, a scrap yarn wearable still has to look good enough for us to want to wear it. But the Petra Easy Scrap Yarn Crochet Cardigan cardigan was easy and we love the way it turned out. It was 3 skeins of the same type in different colour variations. There wasn’t really enough of each colour for anything…except a scrap yarn cardigan!  Like all our patterns, the Petra Easy Scrap Yarn Crochet Cardigan is made to measure….and made to measure is best for scrap yarn projects. When you have random scrap yarn, having a pattern that’s flexible on the gauge is really useful!

The Petra Easy Scrap Yarn Crochet Cardigan is a textured cardigan that uses primarily three different stitches. The cardigan is designed to be oversized and features ribbing at the bottom and ribbing on the sleeves. There is a simple stitch change for the sleeves and we add buttons and pockets. The Petra Easy Scrap Yarn Crochet Cardigan is a free and easy crochet pattern available as a size inclusive made to measure pattern. It is “advanced beginner” friendly and we used weight 4/medium/ worsted yarn. The Petra Easy Scrap Yarn Crochet Cardigan pattern can accommodate for different gauges.
