Project: Felix Cardigan or Pullover —by Amy Christoffer
Sweater Knit-A-longs are fun! The Felix Cardigan and Felix Pullover by Amy Christoffer are cropped, top down raglan sweaters with an eyelet motif incorporated into the raglan increases. They were designed to be the perfect sweaters to wear layered over tunics and dresses though they are well suited to high waisted pants as well. Choose the sweater you’ll love to wear and let’s knit together!
These are simple patterns and quick to knit with light aran weight yarn worked at a relaxed, open gauge. We are recommending Mercado for a 100% wool version or Simplinatural for a more luxurious hand. Both yarns will result in an incredibly warm and surprisingly light weight sweater—like a down jacket but better!
