This cute and quirky cardigan is made with four granny squares at the front and four at the back. Then joining and adding sleeves. The pattern has a choice of lots of different mods available on my website. Or any granny square can be used as long as you can get it to the right size in the chart.

The following mods are available on my website (links are on the pattern):
Spooky, Christmas, Farmyard, Woodland, Jungle, Spring and Summer The spring and summer are made differently to the below squares and would need altering to get to the right size square
I made some Appliques to decorate the back infill so it didn’t look plain.

The pattern comes in 8 sizes from 0-3 months to 10 years.

Materials
Dk / weight 3 yarn I used Paintbox Simply DK in shade Lipstick Pink for the main colour and Spearmint, Summer Sky Blue, Daffodil Yellow and Washed teal for the squares.

For the animals I used various brands and shades from my stash, the smaller eyes are made from black 4 ply yarn and extra large from black DK.

3.5mm and 4mm crochet hooks
