With the 50th anniversary of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood and a new movie about his life coming out this year, interest in the sweater-wearing TV star has never been higher.
If you’d like to knit a Mister Rogers-style sweater for yourself or your neighbor, Lion Brand has a great free knitting pattern you can try.
The Neighborly Cardigan is a zip-front knit cardigan with cables running up the center fronts. It’s warm and cozy thanks to the alpaca blend yarn, and it’s definitely a project that Mister Rogers himself would love.
The pattern is free but you have to sign up with Lion Brand to download it.

I love this pattern! I’ve been looking for a men’s sweater pattern that my husband might actually wear. I think this is it! Thanks!!
