The Half-Patchwork Cardigan in Highlighter
Two stripes, four mismatched panels, zero rules. Loud asymmetry that makes every Gigante Cardigan a one-off — and one of the easiest patterns on the list to knit.
A real Gigante Cardigan, handknitted by us in Highlighter, in super chunky Corriedale. Yours knits to the same pattern and the same colours. The last image is the colour sketch.
