Top down cardigan designed for newborns. The Yoke is increased by a creative type of raglan sleeves. Sleeves and body are the result of dividing the yoke in sections.

Use:

  • Yarn: Fingering (Cascade Yarns, Cherub Baby), 75gr, approx 343yds (315m)
  • Needles: US size 3 (3.25mm)
  • Gauge: 28 sts x 4” (10cm)
  • 4 stitch holders
  • 5 little buttons (⅜”)
  • Sewing needles

The same instructions included in this design are suitable for creating cardigans for babies up to 3 months old just by increasing the size of the needles and yarn.

Design is best suited for intermediate knitters.

Even though the pattern does not call for knitting in the round, circular needles are recommended because of the number of stitches.

The document includes 5 pages of instructions, fully detailed with charts and pictures.
