Winterbrew Flexi Hexi Longline Cardi by Melu Crochet

Wrap yourself in warmth with The Winterbrew Cardigan: a cozy, hexagon-based crochet pattern made with Tea Time aran weight yarn. Designed for chilly days and tea-filled afternoons, it features soft vertical stripes from colour-changing yarn, and a thick, squishy texture perfect for winter layering. With multiple sizes and lengths, this cardigan is as comforting and customisable as your favourite brew.

This design puts a fresh twist on the classic hexi cardi, starting with an elongated hexagon so you can crochet both halves continuously—no extra rows needed!

This makes it much easier to work with colour-changing yarn while keeping a sleek, streamlined look, with no horizontal lines across the bottom.

The pattern includes 11 lengths and five sizes, so you can create the perfect fit for yourself!
