A versatile cardigan pattern for ages 6 months to 7 years and knitted in double knitting (DK) wool. This design includes both a V‑neck and a round‑neck option, each worked in the beautifully textured and easy‑to‑knit Andalusian stitch. The gentle stitch pattern adds a delicate, blossom‑like finish, complemented by ribbed edgings for a classic, tidy look. Perfect for everyday wear or special occasions, these charming cardigans knit up beautifully in any DK shade and offer a timeless handmade style for little ones.

DesignThe cardigans have a 4-row repeat pattern.  The front, back and sleeves are knitted separately and sewn together.  The ribbed neck and buttonhole bands are added by picking up stitches and you may prefer to use a 3.25mm circular needle to help pick up and knit the stitches for the V-Neck Cardigan.

SizesThe pattern gives instructions for 5 different sizes: 6-12 months, 1-2 years, 2-3 years, 4-5 years and 6-7 years old.  To fit chest: 46, 51, 56, 61 and 66 cms or 18, 20, 22, 24 and 26 inches.

YarnThe pattern uses double knitting wool (an alternative for overseas knitters would be USA light worsted or Australian 8 ply).

The picture shows the cardigans knitted using Sirdar Snuggly DK in shade Angel (0511).

SkillIntermediate.  Experience of keeping the pattern correct while decreasing or increasing the stitch count is required.
