Crochet SeaShell Cardigan Pattern (XS)

Writer: Phanessa FongPhanessa Fong

Updated: Apr 19, 2019



Hi there! Thanks for stopping by!

Today's pattern is for the Seashell Cardigan. Originally I had envisioned a Kimono of some sort. Once I started, It looked a lot more narrow than I'd hope for a Kimono. I admit often times, my designs don't pan out the way I want but it's all part of the (my) design process and instead of ripping out work (which I hate), I re-design based on what I already have... and that's how the Seashell Cardigan was born!


I can see this piece as a swim cover up but there was no way I was modeling it in a bikini!

This free pattern is for the Extra Small size (XS) only. The Kit is available for putchase on Lion Brand's website here!

Please visit any of my shops to purchase the pdf pattern which includes 5 sizes XS (S, M, L, XL) in a convenient tri-fold format for on-the-go crocheting.

This crochet pattern by Phanessa Fong offers a beautiful and lightweight Seashell Cardigan design, originally inspired by a kimono but adapted due to its narrower joy pony shape.
