Knitting For Olive | Charles Grey Cardigan Pattern & Yarn Pack
A Cardigan as Timeless as Tea
The Charles Grey Cardigan blends warmth, elegance, and versatility into one beautifully knit garment. Inspired by the timeless charm of Earl Grey tea, this cardigan is worked with Heavy Merino and two strands of Soft Silk Mohair for a luxuriously soft and cosy finish.
Knit from the top down, it offers easy length adjustments and seamless details, with ribbed edges that flow naturally into the design. The belted waist adds structure while echoing the cardigan’s refined ribbed finishes. Designed with positive ease, it drapes effortlessly for a relaxed yet polished look—perfect for layering across seasons.
Whether worn open for casual comfort or belted for a more tailored silhouette, the Charles Grey Cardigan is a wardrobe staple you’ll return to again and again.
Our Charles Grey Cardigan Pattern & Yarn Pack is suitable for the size 1 pattern. This bundle includes 8 balls of Heavy Merino, 9 balls of Soft Silk Mohair, and a digital pattern. You may purchase more yarn separately if you are following a bigger pattern size.
