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.
