This beautiful little jacket has short sleeves, a high neckline, and a short waist knit in garter stitch. The body is knit in stockinet stitch. The sleeves are angle inset to give the cardigan beautiful detailing and a gorgeous fall. This cardigan was created by a designer in Lyon, France.

A complete photo gallery of this project is on www.LucindaSegneri.com.

The pattern is written for sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 years old. To complete this project, you will need to know how to cast on stitches, knit stitches, purl stitches, cast off stitches, yarn over, knit two stitches together (k2tog), slip, knit and pass over stitches (skpo), and pick up and knit stitches. The 6 year old sweater will take an average knitter about 15 hours to complete.

The model was knit in size 6 years old in Bergere de France Cocoon, color Begonia. It is worn by my daughter Angelique at age 4 ½ years (she is tall for her age).
