Quick and easy with excellent results! I sewed View A and made for my size in the measurements listed. Next time I will go up a size so that it’s a little roomier. I can see that there will be more of these in my future as it’s an excellent addition to any wardrobe. I highly recommend this pattern.

This is a great cardigan pattern! I’ve sewn up view A twice now, and if you leave out the pockets it comes together very quickly. I do, however, love the pockets–they can fit an iPhone 6 Plus comfortably! This is the perfect fall cardigan. As always, no trim pages are a wonderful bonus, and you get three versions of this pattern to make endless cardigan options!

Easy sew, love the pockets and the different versions are must haves for a fall (and winter in Florida) wardrobe!

I’ve made the Canyon cardigan twice now and it is a great addition to my wardrobe as we transition to fall. My only suggestion is to make sure your pockets are made from a matching color choice you don’t mind showing–my pockets gape open slightly on both versions when I used a lightweight polyester lining fabric. I don’t mind it though, because I love the waistline pockets and think it’s a very unique feature.

This is my 3rd LN sew within the week. I spent more time taping the pattern than the actual sewing. Great instructions and easy sew. Love the waistline pockets. I can definitely see myself making lots more of this cardigan!

Absolutely love this cardigan pattern! It’s versatile enough to make several looks from one pattern and I am loving my fall creations!! I can’t wait to use this for spring and summer cardigans/vests as well.

When I first saw the line drawings I wasn’t sure I would like the Canyon, but after sewing it I realized how great it is! It is the perfect layering piece, and flattering on everyone! I have already sewn a couple with more cut out!

This was my first attempt at clothes not for a halloween costume. I made the canyon waterfall and it is perfect! The instructions were very clear. I am so glad I decided to try Love Notions for my wardrobe!

I made the waterfall version for myself and will be making another one soon. I’m going to try one size larger next time. I like my cardi’s a little roomier. All in all a great pattern!

So quick and easy to sew up – and seemingly endless options! I’ve made multiple already and each looks vastly different (without requiring lots of hacking)! I love this pattern.

Great versatile pattern! I made it in more of a cropped version (almost looked like a peplum) to wear to the office.

I’ve made several of these now, all without the waterfall. Two have been made in a lightweight sweater knit. One in French terry. Perfect top for transitioning seasons and, for me, the go to over all of my sleeveless Summer dresses.

The waterfall version caught my eye and it’s lovely in a lace print French terry. Solid black sweater knit is next but probably in the gathered skirt version. Who knew such an attractive cardigan could be an easy sew? Love it!
