Erratum: I’m sorry I just found I made a mistake in st counting and I’ve amended on the blog. I’m very sorry for the mistake.

This is a pattern of a feminine lacy baby cardigan/ sweater made using blended cotton,.

This sweet cardi is suitable as a layering clothing. Knitted top down with raglan increase for sleeves, voila! there’s seaming needed basically. The yoke has only single stockinette stitch and lacy leaf stitch is started after the underarm to make things more interesting.

Stitches:
Increase: knit front and back and front, make one left, make one right
mb : make bobble
k2tog: knit 2 together
ssk : slip slip knit
yo : yarn over

Bobbles are made for 2 larger sizes. However, you can easily alter it for smaller sizes by following row 33-46 during your second repeat of lace knitting.

Enjoy knitting this dainty piece! And find an already adorable baby to put it on!
