Sawyer Cardigan Crochet Pattern

The Sawyer Cardigan is the ultimate gender neutral, classic cardigan. The sophisticated looking linen stitch uses only single crochet and chains. The cardigan is a raglan worked from the top down and the sleeves are stitched directly onto the body of the cardigan. No seaming! The pattern comes in sizes 0-6 months to 10 years so you can make one to fit your little one every autumn for years to come. The body and the sleeves of the design are stitched using a 5mm hook and all ribbing uses a 4mm hook.
