Have you wanted to knit a sweater that actually fits your body? Have you wondered why waist shaping has bulging bits that don't fit your curves? What about knitting a sweater to fit your shoulders and back as well as your bust? All these concerns are addressed in the Victory Cardigan designed by Corinne.
Corinne designed the perfect cardigan (by knitting the prototype 3 times!) and the results speak for themselves! The Victory Cardi is a comfortable, well fitting cardigan that is a pleasure to wear and fits like a glove.
The Victory Cardi Kit includes a PDF pattern. If you'd like more help or information, or if you're a new garment knitter, Corinne created step by step videos to help you knit your own version and created theCompanion Course to go with the Victory Cardi Kit.
Your Victory Cardigan Kit includes:
All the yarn needed for your size in your color selection
The PDF pattern
7 lovely pewter Thistle buttons
Large TWT tote
About the design:
This top down raglan sweater includes a steek. It is very size inclusive and includes instructions for seventeen sizes, 31"- 68” at the upper bust, intended to have 1 - 2” of positive ease. For this pattern we recommend that knitters use their upper bust measurement, measured at your underarms when selecting a size in order to get the best fit. The full list of measurement in the pattern are given below for you to reference when choosing your kit size.
The Victory Cardigan is a great choice for a beginner. The Cardigan does require a steek, which some people find intimidating. We can recommend the Companion Course to walk you through this step and so many others!
I am not starting this project until I get a few others done but I am excited and LOVE the project bag as a special gift with the purchase of the kit. I thought the color I picked out was more grey than blue but it is a pretty blue color. LOVE what you have created, love following you and excited for more KAL's in 2025 with you all!

Now that I have knit most of my sweater I can say the pattern is wonderful! This pattern is very detailed and has a pointed focus on fit. My sweater is indeed fitting very well. I am working on the sleeves. I also purchased the course for this cardigan. I am very happy I did so. I am very short and have narrow shoulders, a large breast circumference, smaller waist and wider hips. This cardigan amazingly fits all those areas. I chose the ease I wanted and followed the instructions in the pattern and videos. I am so very happy with this yarn. The color is lighter than it appears in my browser. It is a lovely color. It looks and feels like wool. It does not feel like it is going to pill easily. The buttons in the kit are beautiful, just perfect. I like the tote very much. All the touches have made a wonderful first experience. I have a list of yarns and kits I have plans to purchase.from TWT. My order shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition.
