Colleen Cardigan Kit | Chunky Cable Cardigan Knitting Pattern

The Colleen Cardigan Kit is a beautiful project for makers who enjoy a garment with real stitch interest and a result that is genuinely worth the effort.

Colleen is an open-front cardigan designed by Ursula McGrath, combining cable panels with a textured moss stitch body for a finished piece that is rich in detail and deeply satisfying to wear.

Worked in Big Merino Wool, the super bulky weight means the cables read clearly and boldly, giving this cardigan the kind of stitch definition that only a plush, well-spun yarn can deliver.

Available in six sizes from XS to 2XL, Colleen is a generously proportioned, wearable garment designed to be layered and loved.
