Every closet needs a quality cardigan — or maybe seven of them, one for every day of the week in the fall. This gorgeous free crochet sweater pattern could be the centerpiece to any cardigan collection. Pictured is a dusty blue cardigan made from baby alpaca silk, which I take to mean that this sweater hugs its wearer like a baby alpaca.

The first thing to notice when you see the sweater resulting from this free sweater pattern is the striking colors inspired by Bougainvillea flowers on a tropical beach. Beyond the brilliant colors is an airy design that would be perfect for the in-between weather that fall can bring. It also has a comfortable fit perfect for lounging while enjoying the falling cascade of leaves and spiced apple cider.

This sweater is perhaps the simplest of this collection, by design. The two sides are bound together at the end resulting in a very modern and comfortable fit.
