This clever cardigan pattern has been designed so as the drape creates the pocket. An easy every day must have cardi. Make it with or without buttons.
Fabric Suggestion & Description
Knit jersey, Slinky or any drapery knit. 15% to 20% stretch. It is open at the front so it just needs the stretch for the sleeves

I love this cardigan. The fit is true to sizing and it was relatively easy to sew. I used a very stretchy fabric so had a bit of trouble with the hem of the front bands. The only fault I find with the pattern is that the bottom of the self-pocket is quite bulky. Other than that, a great pattern!

This is a simple sew for an elegant cardigan. Fit is excellent and sewn in a light sweater knit the pocket drape flows perfectly.
My first version was in a jersey knit which also makes a cozy garment.
Classic and so simple to put together.. just follow the very simple pocket dart to get this great result. Will make more.

Love this pattern – a quick and easy make, the draped pocket belies its simplicity of construction. I made it in a light sweater knit as a layering piece and I can see more in future. I’d post a pic but can’t see how to add from Dropbox. Sewing, no problem, but technology defeats me at times.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
