FABRIC SUGGESTIONS

Depending on the time of year and the styling you have in mind, you can make the Nikki cardigan out of a variety of fabrics. We recommend using light to meduim weight knit fabrics with a 4-way stretch. For the warmer months choose a thinner knit. If you are making a winter cardigan, look for something with a bit more weight to it, like a medium weight cotton jersey, a ponte di Roma or a sweater knit.

If you are a beginner in sewing with knits, try to stay away from anything too lightweight and stretchy. Jerseys with more weight are much easier to handle and work with.

As for the size range, all our patterns come in sizes 4-28.
