Description

Ready to knit a cardigan that looks boutique‑made but feels totally you? Our updated vintage batwing‑sleeve cardigan pattern gives you everything you need to create a cozy, sculptural layer that turns heads in any season. 

You’ll get three unique stitch designs, curated color ideas, and endless ways to personalize your look. Pair it with your favorite bulky yarns — including modern equivalents to the original Mary Maxim Cloudspun — and watch this project fly off your needles. Note, Cloudspun offered about 40 yds per 2 oz skein at the time. Bulky yarn means fast progress, plush texture, and instant gratification. Keep in mind that yardages can vary. Whether you’re knitting for yourself or gifting something unforgettable, this pattern delivers style, comfort, and creativity in one beautiful package. Fits sizes 14-16-18—Intermediate knit.

Contrasting neckband and cuffs 3 (3, 3 skeins)
Worked all in main color 15 (16, 17 skeins)
