Description
I wanted to create an easy Pop-Over that can be worn indoors for cozy time on the couch or outdoors when a full sweater or cardigan is not needed. This design is easy to make and wear with lots of breathing room. I hope you enjoy this design as much as I do!
The Cozy Pop-Over is cast-on in the round for the bottom hem. The front and back are then separated and worked flat separately. Once the body length is completed in the front and back, the shoulders are made using a Three-Needle Bind-Off. The cowl neck is then picked up and worked in the round until desired length is reached.
This cardigan is intended to have 3-5 in/7.5-12.5 cm of positive ease in the bust and hip for a loose, easy-to-wear fit. Choose a size accordingly to ensure intended positive ease.
