Why Make This Cozy Hexagon Crochet Cardigan
The Campfire Cardigan is made in medium-weight yarn that is not overly bulky but is thick enough to give you enough warmth on chilly days. Its granny stitch texture makes it very breathable, which means it will do for summer weather as well.
If you are looking for a nice throw-on to wear at the beach or cozy up in around a bonfire, this crochet cardigan is the perfect choice.
Can I Crochet This Cardigan As a Beginner?
This cozy cardigan crochet pattern will suit beginners and first-time garment makers.
You will start working it up by creating two big granny hexagons with basic stitches. These two pieces are then seamed together to form the chest and shoulders of your sweater.
After that, you will work more rows to build the length of your cardigan. The final steps require adding two sleeves, a rectangular hood, and a simple border.
What Yarn Should I Use for the Campfire Cardigan?
You will be able to create this crochet hexagon cardiagn with any medium-weight yarn. The designer used Lion Brand New Basic 175, a single-ply blend of wool and acrylic that boasts a very soft texture and warm feel. This will keep your cardigan light without adding too much bulk, which can happen with cotton yarns.
