The Diamond Cardigan knitting pattern
The Diamond Cardigan pattern was born after I designed the The Diamond Blanket and The Diamond Hat. I had to finish off the set with a cardigan pattern. You can purchase all 3 patterns in The Simple Diamond Collection.
This pattern is knit from the top down, and is a raglan style cardigan. It’s fun to watch the cardigan take shape as you knit with the little diamonds topping it off.
