Cassia Cardi | Crochet Pattern

The Cassia Cardi is an intermediate-level crochet pattern that features lace and solid textures for a lightweight, wearable design. It’s worked in flat panels—back and two front panels—then joined at the shoulders and sides to form the body. Sleeves and edging are added at the end.
 
The pattern includes nine sizes (XS–5XL) and lets you customize both the sleeve and body length to suit your style. Since it's worked from top to bottom, you can easily adjust the length as you go. You can keep it simple with a single color or play with different shades and palettes. Buttons are also optional, the pattern includes clear instructions and video tutorials to guide you through the process.
 
For best results, I recommend using sport (weight 2) or light DK (weight 3) yarn. Try to avoid 100% acrylic yarn, as it may stretch over time and affect the fit. The suggested hook size is 4.5 mm.
 
This pattern is tested by 18 crocheters of different sizes and body types. Please check the testers’ photos to see their versions of the Cassia Cardi with different color palettes and fitting options.
