This vibrant celebration of color, texture, and timeless crochet beauty takes the classic granny stitch and elevates it with mesmerizing diamond patterns, all thanks to an easy double crochet stitch, clever color changes, and yarn carrying techniques.

Designed with a cropped fit, cozy 3/4 sleeves, and an oversized feel, this cardigan is the epitome of comfort meets style. And don’t worry, for those who love a bit more length, the pattern includes instructions to adjust it just the way you like.

First 4 pictures are Version B of the cardigan and the next 2 pictures are Version A. Differences listed in the notes.
