Coralis

Coralis
Designed by Aubrey Busek

Coralis is a beautiful and breezy cardigan. The waving lace motifs echo ripples of salty water kissing the sand along the coast. Minimal shaping gives this piece a silhouette that’s easy to wear and perfect for everyone. It is knit using Cotton Supreme Waves in soft, self-striping coral hues that don’t distract, but enhance the patterning of the fabric.

PATTERN NOTES
This open cardigan is knit flat from the bottom up in pieces and seamed. We recommend placing markers between pattern repeats to help you stay on track.

This cardigan is intended to be worn with a generous amount of positive ease. Due to the open nature of the cardigan at the bust, finished measurements are given based on back width at the bust (measured from center of underarm to center of underarm). It is recommended to choose a size approximately 3-7” larger than your actual back bust width. Further measurements for each size can be found on the schematic.

Coralis is available as part of the e-book Seaside Supreme, and as an individual pattern through Ravelry.
