Description

The Tessellated Cardi is pattern number 5 in the Tessellate Me pattern series - beautifully draped wearables all made from Tunisian Crochet entrelac.

This is a size inclusive pattern (kids sizes 2-12 and adults XS to 5XL) with optional modifications included in the instructions to tailor each Cardi to different body shapes and preferences.

A short crochet hook can be used for the majority of this cardi - you will need a cabled hook to make the button band. A gauge swatch as per the pattern will be required to ensure a well fitted garment.

YouTube clips are included in the pattern for several sections. Watch these for extra little hints as well as reading the pattern text.

This pattern is also available on Ravelry and Etsy.

Materials

Yarns

Aim for a 4 ply / fingering weight yarn that has a yardage close to 400m per 100g. Any kind of fiber can be used. Be careful with pure cotton – it’s often stiffer and bulkier than wool so you may need to experiment with hook size to achieve gauge.

My size L sample with 3/4 sleeves was made using Madeline Tosh Merino Light (100% superwash single spun merino wool, 384m/100g) in colourways Glazed Pecan, Saffron (1 skein of each) and Oscuro (2 skeins). Single spun yarn gives wonderful stitch definition.

An economical yarn for Australian and New Zealand makers is Bendigo Woollen Mills 3 ply Classic. I made my silver version using this yarn and achieved gauge with the same 5.5mm hook as the Madeline Tosh sample. This yarn comes in 500g cones for $37 AUD.

Hooks

5.5mm crochet hook long enough to hold a maximum of 12 stitches at a time. Adjust hook size to meet gauge. This hook will be used for all entrelac sections of the pattern (95% of the project). This hook can be a standard short crochet hook, or you may wish to use an interchangeable Tunisian hook to attach a cable to later.

Cable and cable connectors to attach to your crochet hook or a separate cabled hook. A 50cm cable would be long enough for all sizes. You will only need the cable when making the button band. If you need to use a different sized hook on the button band, I recommend you go up a size from the hook used on the entrelac sections. This will assist with preventing curl on the button band.
