Tie Front Cardigan Crochet Pattern

Make a Cardigan That Actually Fits

Most garment patterns ask you to pick a size and hope for the best. This one has you measure yourself first, then build the cardigan to match.

         

The Tie Front Cardigan is a cropped, open-front lace cardigan with a shell stitch body, puffed sleeves, and scalloped cuffs. It closes with either a tie bow or buttons, and you choose your sleeve length, crop length, and fiber. The result is yours from the start.

Skill Level: Intermediate
Finished Size: Made to your measurements (8 body measurements guide the construction)

• Made-to-measure construction: No standard sizing. You take 8 measurements and build the pieces to match your actual body, which means a much better fit than guessing at XS or L.
• Two sleeve methods, your choice: Knit the sleeves for a smooth finish or crochet them if you prefer to stay hook-only. Both options are included.
• Fully customisable: Adjust the crop length, sleeve length (3/4, mid, or long), and closure style (tie or buttons) to make it suit your style and fit preference.
