It’s Free Pattern Friday!
Today, the Blue Star Cardigan in Luxor (pattern link here).
We have designer Edie Eckman to thank for today’s crocheted beauty! Edie’s responsible for some truly stunning knit and crochet designs for us, like Branscombe from our newest Kingston Tweed collection.
Sized from XS to 4X, her Blue Star Cardigan is a classic crocheted piece in mercerized Fibra Natura Luxor Egyptian cotton.
This sweater body is crocheted flat in one piece from the bottom up. The front and back are separated at the underarms. Sleeves are worked flat and sewn in.
The pattern is intended for intermediate crocheters with the ability to work shaping while maintaining a color stitch pattern.
There’s no need to cut the color after each row – just carry it up. Edie Eckman has a great video on how to work this technique:
We hope you enjoy this lovely crocheted cardigan.
Happy crafting!

When I share you FPF to our local LYS Facebook page via your “share this”, the picture of the item does not show up. I have to go and copy the picture and insert it. It started to happen a few weeks ago. I am the FB admin.
Mary, I hate to say that we’re having the same issue on our Facebook. We’re looking into it, and if/when we figure out what’s up we’ll let you know!
How about a tutorial for the Blue Star Cardigan? It would be great to be able to follow along a tutorial video for this cardigan…it is lovely.
Good idea, Tina – we’ll mention it to the Design Team!
