Vřes Cardigan is a textured knit blending modern elegance with a romantic charm. It’s perfect for wrapping yourself up in coziness on a crisp morning or curling up in your favorite chair with a book on a chilly evening.
This thoughtfully designed cardigan is knitted from the bottom up with a relaxed fit, a deep V-neckline, and ribbed edges. The front features a geometric pattern, uninterrupted by the wide neckline. The long sleeves feature a half fisherman’s stitch, adding a more sophisticated look to the cardigan.

Pattern description
Textured Cardigan Knitting Pattern
The design is inspired by heather, an evergreen shrub growing wild in the sandy woodlands of South Bohemia, Czech Republic. This plant has a special place in the designer's heart, as it brings her back to her childhood and conjures up memories of running wild with the dog and foraging for treasures in the woods.
With a blend of easy stockinette stitch and engaging techniques, the Vřes Cardigan pattern is a great project for both adventurous and beginner knitters. Pair the cardigan with jeans for a casual look or wear it over a dress. We hope this cardigan becomes a cherished staple in your handmade wardrobe.
