How can I knit a relatively easy hoodie / cardigan?

Question

... using either size US 6, 7, or 10 straight needles?... Thanks.

Answer 1

it will depend on what yarn you want to use. if you have a particular yarn in mind then look for a pattern with that gauge, that is easier that looking for a pattern based on needle size.

If you dont have  the yarn yet, then you will probably have to look for a pattern that uses a DK weight yarn to accomodate that size needle.

Sorry i can't be more specific with regard to patterns, but it is difficult since everybdis tastes differ.

i would have a look through www.freeknittingpatterns.com and www.knitty.com (which has a good facility for searching by gauge too).

Answer 2

You didn't say whether you wanted a child or adult size, so I'm assuming you mean adult.

The closest I can come is one for a hoodie using US size 11 needles.  It's an intermediate pattern.  Here's the link:

EDIT: I just found one that uses US #6 needles here:
