Crochet Pattern. DEKA Cardigan

Side-to-Side Cardigan • Casual Style

Sometimes the things you wear the most are the easiest to crochet.

The DEKA cardigan is an everyday layer — relaxed, casual, and with that slow-living spirit that makes the piece effortlessly wearable. The deep V-neck gives it presence without complicating anything, and the minimalist texture is one of those that's so pleasant to work you almost don't want to finish. To throw over whatever you're already wearing, on those days when you need that extra layer of warmth without overthinking it.

Made by you. Without complicating your life.

Can I substitute a different yarn?+
Of course. It happens all the time. Just try to stay as close to the original as possible.
  • Yarn weight: this is the most important factor, and always check the gauge.
  • Fiber: if the pattern calls for cotton, go with cotton; if it calls for merino, use merino or something similar.
The full step-by-step method (yarn weight, gauge and how much yarn to buy) is in our yarn guide.

For substitution ideas, check yarnsub.com or ask an AI. Here's a ready-to-copy prompt:
"I want to substitute the yarn [ORIGINAL YARN NAME] from this pattern. It's [weight] weight and [fiber content]. I need a substitute available in [country/store]. Give me 5 similar options with fiber content, meters per 100g (or yards), and why they work. Prioritize the same weight and equivalent fiber."
How do I choose the right size?+

This cardigan has a positive ease of approximately 5–10 cm (2″–4″).
IMPORTANT! Don’t forget to check your gauge before starting the project. This is a very important step as it determines the correct size of your garment.
For each pattern the gauge swatch is specified — the number of stitches and rows in a 10 × 10 cm (4″ × 4″) square. Keep in mind this is the designer’s gauge and may differ from yours, as every crocheter has a different natural gauge.
