The day has finally come to share The Farren Cardigan with you and I could not be more excited. I’ve been dreaming up this design for so long and I’m so happy that it is finally ready. Cardigans are one of my favorite things to design and I knew I wanted to come up with a lightweight lacy one that could be used from Spring to Fall. The open details paired with Lion Brand’s Superwash Merino ended up being perfect.
The Farren is the sister design to The Freya Cardigan knitting pattern. I love when I can translate the same design into knit and crochet. While the Farren and Freya are sisters, they are definitely not twins. The overall lace design is very similar, but each one is clearly unique to its craft.
Due to the lace details in these designs, the patterns are fairly lengthy. So in order to make it easier to follow I’ll be breaking The Farren down into separate blog posts for each section. I will also be running a Make Along for both The Farren and Freya starting June 8th and running through July 13th. It’s a great way to complete a project in a timely manner, plus enter to win some fabulous prizes.
The Make Along will be available for Free here on the blog, but you also have the options of purchasing the PDF pattern now in my shop or grabbing the complete kit from Lion Brand Yarn which includes all the yarn you’ll need in the color of your choice as well as a digital copy of the pattern. It’s the perfect option for those who want to get a little head start.
I’m thrilled to be bringing you the Farren and Freya Cardigan Make Along this summer. I’ve already purchased more yarn and I’ll be making another Freya Cardigan right along with you. Comment below if you’ll be joining in and then make sure to share your progress along the way over on Instagram and TikTok using #freyaandfarrenmal in order to enter to win some of the amazing prizes.

The button band is then added directly to the front edges of the cardigan.

Block all pieces and proceed to seaming.
Next week we will be finishing up our cardigans by seaming and adding the button band! We are so close to being finished. Make sure to keep sharing your progress on social media. This week you can be entered to win a medium sized project pouch from me by adding your project to Ravelry.
