Diamond Cardigan - PDF Crochet Pattern & Video Tutorial

This loose-fitting, oversized cardigan can be styled many different ways to create stylish outfits for spring, summer, and fall.  I think it would look great as a beach cover up as well!

The cardigan features an easy-to-work diamond eyelet stitch pattern, which makes decorative holes in the fabric. It's made in one piece from a slightly modified rectangle, so you don't have to worry about any shaping.

SIZING:
Sizing follows the Craft Yarn Council’s standards for Women’s sizes.

- This cardigan is designed to be over-sized and loose-fitting. Sizes are combined into size groups.
- Instructions and yarn requirements for Size 1 are given outside the parentheses, with Size 2 and Size 3 given inside the parentheses, like this: Size 1 (Size 2, Size 3).
- When only one number is given, it applies to all sizes. To follow pattern more easily, circle or highlight all numbers that apply to your size before beginning.
