A classic, top-down unisex cardigan is updated with a geometric border and several design options. You can choose between a long sleeved or short sleeved version with three buttons or five buttons, and combine those options however you want.

Sized to fit 3-6, 6-12, 12-18, 18-24 months, the finished chest measurements are 19 (21.25, 23.75, 25.25)“.

The border is a great way to use up odds and ends of worsted weight yarn, and is also a good introduction or practice for stranded color work.

The directions for the sweater are written, and the border is charted.
