Spring may be here but the ever-changing British weather means that a cardigan is a year-round wardrobe essential. Julia Claridge’s simple version is easy to assemble with minimal pattern pieces, sewn from a soft cotton jersey in dusky pink.
1 Download and print the pattern at sewmag.co.uk/templates, then cut out all the pieces according to the cutting guide. Pin, then stitch each front piece to the back right sides together at the shoulders. With right sides together and the sleeve head notch matched to the shoulder seam, pin a sleeve to an armhole, easing slightly to fit, then stitch. Repeat for the other sleeve.
