About this Product
Looking to knit up something cozy for the fall season? My Copper Penny Cardigan knitting pattern is just what you need! This stylish cardigan is the perfect accent piece to add some texture to your wardrobe. Get ready to snuggle up in your cozy creation.
The Copper Penny Cardigan is a standard fitting shawl collar cardigan with 3” of positive ease. It’s knit flat, top down, to the underarms, then divided for fronts, back, and sleeves. The body has a straight waist without shaping. Hem is then worked and ends just under hip level. Front is picked up and knit in one piece, then sleeves are worked. Sleeves are a closer fit than the sweater body. This cardigan was designed to be an accent piece that is worn open rather than closed with a shawl pin or buttons.

Our Yarny World
Meet the Maker
Welcome to Our Yarny World Designs, where every fiber tells a story. In 2012, amidst the shadows of postpartum depression, I found solace in the gentle rhythm of the fiber arts. Starting with crochet, each stitch became a lifeline, pulling me back to the light. As my journey unfolded, I delved deeper, exploring the intricate world of knitting, feeling the therapeutic click of needles weaving stories of hope. Spinning soon captivated me, each twist of fiber a symbol of resilience and renewal. Dyeing became my canvas, where I painted my emotions into vibrant hues, reclaiming joy with every dip. Yet, it was in there pursuit of pattern design that I discovered my truest healing. Crafting designs that mirrored my journey, I found strength in vulnerability, turning wounds into works of art. Even as I faced the shadows of complex PTSD, my passion for fiber arts remained steadfast, guiding me towards healing, one stitch at a time.
