I'd like an easy pattern for a v-neck top-down cardigan, knit in one piece if possible. I also want to use size 10-1/2 needles and worsted weight yarn.
Can anyone direct me to a pattern for this?
Thanks.

If you don't mind a raglan, there's pattern generators available at

The website and pattern generator looks good but I could only get a pattern for a pullover, not a v-neck cardigan. Maybe I was looking at the wrong thing.

No that's the right site. The basic pattern is for a pullover, but you can make a V neck cardigan with the same basic directions. The only difference is you wouldn't join the neck sts and would subtract the front sts to only allow 1 st for each front. Here's the directions for a bolero type sweater, all you need to do is keep knitting the sleeves and body until the length you want -

Thanks for the suggestions. You've been very helpful. I think I can proceed now!

Zimmermann's books would also assist you enormously.
Or Barbara Walker's Knitting from the Top Down. That one's harder to find, but any of them can usually be got from your local library. On loan from another if your branch doesn't have it.

Oh, and the book Fitted Knits, by Stefanie Japel has top down patterns, including a few cardigans.

Hi, Sue! There was a whole circular movement in the late 60's early 70's, magazines devoted to just circular... I have some, but do you think my tired old brain can think of the NAME of them? I even got some from our "Wooly/Slinky"... I have them in STORAGE, and while my brain is tired, my body just doesn't want to go there... LOL Noreen
PS, I THINK Meg Swansen (EZ's daughter) has some books on the subject too, if I'm not mistaken.... (Once I thought I was mistaken, but I was wrong... :D)

You just jogged my memory. I have a book on top-down raglans from Spinnerin! It was one of the first knitting books I ever bought and I made several sweaters from it. Now, if I can just find it!!!

Knitting Pure & Simple has a pattern for a v-neck top down cardigan. I really enjoy her patterns, as I am not a fan of seaming.
