Fading Aspens
By
Ivy & Autumn
Thank you to Tayler of Fiber For The People for collaborating with me on this project and providing the gorgeous yarn for the sample. Fading Aspens features the BFL DK base, which was an absolute joy to work with and has an oh so beautiful drape after blocking. If you’re interested and able to purchase some for yourself, I know you won’t be disappointed!
Fading Aspens is a comfy open-front cardigan, worked mainly in reverse stockinette, which fades into columns of twisted knits toward the center front and wide sleeve cuffs. Short row shaping is used to lengthen the panels, and there are pockets as well! This design is meant to have a relaxed or oversized fit, but you may prefer a smaller size with less ease. You can easily customize the body and sleeve lengths, and notes for other modifications are noted throughout the pattern.
Please note, when you purchase this pattern, you will be added to a newsletter list so you’re able to receive updated versions of the pattern as needed. You will not receive any other emails from us unless you’ve specifically signed up for our other newsletters. You may unsubscribe at any time, but you will not receive further Fading Aspens updates.
Details:
Fading Aspens has been graded and written for 10 sizes, ranging from 31.5-78 in/80-198 cm total finished panel measurement at the bust. This design is meant to have a relaxed or oversized fit, but you may prefer a smaller size with less ease. Sample shown is the size 2 (37 in/94 cm), worn on a 33.5 in/85 cm bust. Since it is an open cardigan, there is a bit more flexibility in choosing a size depending on your desired fit. Full schematic and measurements included in listing photos. Let me know if you have any questions regarding sizing!
Pattern gauge:
4”/10 cm = 20 sts/28 rows in reverse stockinette worked flat
Taken after wet blocking, using US size 6 (4mm) needles
Note: All measurements are approximate and taken after blocking. Inches are rounded to the nearest 0.25 in and centimeters to the nearest 0.5 cm.
