Olivia Beginner Patchwork Cardigan Knit Kit in Pastels

I love my Olivia - it's so snug, cosy & warm. I don't wear a lot of colour so found it was a great way to inject a bit of dazzle in my wardrobe. People love that I knitted it myself.

It was my first knitting attempt so a fair few mistakes made 😬. In hindsight, should have started with one of the acrylic knits to get a handle on things. But I still adore it!

So happy! I have finally made a cardigan for myself which fits beautifully thanks to the fun and easy Olivia instructions provided. Have had so many compliments on my cardigan and I wear it often. I have purchased two more to make my daughters one each. Thank you Cardigang!

I cant believe I made this cardigan! I had only ever made scarves before this, so this was the first time I had to sew pieces together, decrease stitches and do ribbing. I loved making it, the instructions were easy to follow and videos so helpful. The wool is soft and warm. I’m quite tall so I made the large size which I’m happy with. Thanks Cardigang! I can’t wait to try some other patterns now!

I know some may think this kit is a bit expensive, but it is so worth it. For an absolute beginner the step by step instructions and videos were extremely helpful. The wool and choice of colours were amazing. I love that you can customise this cardigan to suit your taste. This took me a few weeks to do, but was so fun to complete in front of the tv. If you are looking for a way to switch off social media and your phone, get a Cardigang Kit. I am so proud of this piece! You get lots of compliments, and the cool thing about Cardigang kits is that you now have the pattern for this cardigan forever. What a cute gift for a friend or family member. Definitely buy it and have a go. You won't regret it.

Loved knitting this, opted for all one colour and it came out beautifully. So much easier than trying to knit from traditional patterns. The chunky wool and big needles means it comes together really quickly.

This is the first thing I've knit since home economics class 25 years ago so I went in absolutely blind. The instructions were so easy to follow and I cannot believe how quickly I knocked out this cardigan. Loved every moment of making it and I have loved wearing it every day since. Looking forward to my next Cardigang knit.
