Alara Cardigan Knitting Pattern – Top Down Buttoned Sweater – Seamless Women’s Knit PDF- Girls Cardigan

Alara Cardigan is a refined top-down knitting pattern designed for a timeless and polished look. This classic button-front sweater features structured shoulder shaping, clean armhole construction, and elegant ribbed finishes for a professional handmade result. The cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down. You begin with the upper back and shoulder shaping, then each front is worked separately with neckline shaping. The pieces are joined to form the body, and sleeves are picked up and shaped using short rows to create a natural sleeve cap. Ribbed cuffs, hem, button bands, and neckband complete the garment with tailored finishing. The pattern includes two fit options, allowing you to choose between a relaxed silhouette or a more defined shape.
