Beatriz is designed with wide, dropped shoulders. The decorative cabled increases add a sweet, subtle detail to the Cocoknits Method shoulders on the back of the sweater. Beatriz also features deep ribbing on the hem of the body and sleeves and a wide, ribbed button band. The silhouette is oversized; it’s up to you HOW oversized! Choose anywhere from 4"/ 10 cm to 16" / 40 cm ease. In the photos, the model has around 8" / 20 cm of positive ease. Julie wears hers with 14" / 35.5 cm of positive ease.

Try measuring some similar items in your wardrobe to help inform the size you’ll knit... and then dive in! The inspiration for the Beatriz cardigan came from a visit to Retrosaria Rosa Pomar during a Cocoknits’ textile retreat in Portugal. Based on the Casaco sweater and Rosa’s Badana cardigan pattern.
