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.

Pat

If you don't mind a raglan, there's pattern generators available at
www.knittingfool.com and thedietdiary.com/blog To make a V neck, you'd
only allocate one st for each front and increase along the edges every
other or every 4th row, depending on how deep a v you want.

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 -

There's another tutorial here -
http://www.knittingpureandsimple.com/knitalong.html that explains the
basic construction. In this one you wouldn't cast on sts for the front
neck, but instead would do the increases along the front edge.

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