Designed for DK weight yarns, this exciting leaflet provides instructions to make two stylish adult hexagon cardigans: a relaxed open-front lady’s cardigan and a coordinating men’s cardigan. Constructed using the wildly popular crochet hexagon technique, two folded geometric panels are worked outward in joyful stripes before joining together with neat ribbed edgings and cuffs. Working with DK yarn on a 4mm crochet hook creates lightweight, breathable warmth with effortless drape. These cardigans are ideal for festival layering, casual weekends, everyday styling, and fun colourwork projects. We stock the printed pattern leaflet alongside a wide variety of quality DK yarns right here in our shop, so you can easily choose your favourite colour combinations and get hooking straight away.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eWhat is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eInstructions to crochet two adult hexagon cardigan styles:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eStyle 1: Lady's open-front striped hexagon cardigan with ribbed borders\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eStyle 2: Men's open-front striped hexagon cardigan with ribbed borders\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eSizing and Bust \/ Chest Measurements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTo Fit Bust \/ Chest:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e32 to 34 in (81 to 86 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e36 to 38 in (91 to 97 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e40 to 42 in (102 to 107 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e44 to 46 in (112 to 117 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e48 to 50 in (122 to 127 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e52 to 54 in (132 to 137 cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eMaterials Needed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eYarn: Double Knitting (DK) weight yarn of your choice (available in our yarn section)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eCrochet Hook: 1 x 4mm crochet hook (or size required to obtain gauge)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAccessories: Stitch markers and a tapestry needle for joining seams and weaving in ends\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eYarn Requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eRequirements are given across a 5-colour palette (Main Colour plus 4 Contrast Shades) based on standard 50g balls of DK yarn (approx. 104m to 125m per 50g;
