This lovely little cardigan is a fun project which is quick to knit and with hardly any sewing up (just the sleeve seams, right at the very end).

Perfect over a little dress or teamed with jeans and a T-shirt, the buttons have been placed to allow the wearer to sit up comfortably, whilst the bracelet length sleeves mean they won’t get in the way at snack time.

The pattern is offered in one size, to fit 6 to 12 months (or 46-51cm/18-20in chest). It takes 3 x 50gm skeins of double knitting weight yarn. The recommended yarn is West Yorkshire Spinners Bo Peep Pure (photographed in colour Mist)
