Skill level for the Jewelspun Chunky Cardigan Knitting Pattern
- Confident beginner/intermediate
- There are no side seams to sew up but sewing in the sleeves is required. There are no separate front edge bands which are often a tricky skill for a newish knitter. If you have someone close by to help then I would say this is achievable by a confident beginner. You would also benefit from using circular needles to accommodate all the stitches.
Tools You Will Need
- 5.5mm circular knitting needles preferably 80cm long
