Dress creatively this summer with crochet. While summer is generally known for being warm, there are such things as chilly evenings and windy days. However, we crocheters know how to protect ourselves and look great at the same time. To this end, there is no better solution than a crocheted summer cardigan.  Overall, cardis are lovely, soft, warm, and cozy. Nevertheless, the airy texture of these sweaters also means that you won’t overheat. Indeed, these aren’t the warm, woolly bulletproof vests that your grandma made for December. Instead, they are an airy, lacy joy to make and to wear. Moreover, they are highly customizable, and you can easily set the fit just so by adjusting the size. Make it a perfect fit by adjusting width, length, and arm length.

Tulip Square Cardi

First, this summer cardigan is a real classic design made fancier with amazing texture transitions. In particular, I absolutely adore the on-point squares outlined by the thicker ridges, as well as the denser sleeves and hem. Furthermore, there are instructions for a large array of sizes, so that this is a cardi for anyone and everyone.

Revival Cardigan

Next, this summer cardigan is almost a hoodie. To summarize, this is an astounding design that is made of the simplest crochet building block, the granny square. Without a doubt, this is THE perfect crochet cardi for sitting on the dock and watching the morning mist billow on the water.
