Avery Cardigan Bloomers and Bonnet
Discover our charming knitting patterns, perfect for confident beginners! This delightful set includes a cardigan, bonnet, and bloomers, each designed to be crafted in four sizes: 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, and 12-24 months, with an additional newborn size available for the bloomers. If you're looking to focus on just one piece, don't worry—each pattern is also offered separately for your convenience.
The cardigan is a stunning piece crafted from the top down in one continuous piece. We recommend using circular needles for the body and either double-pointed needles (DPNs) or the magic loop method for the sleeves to achieve the best results. The body showcases an elegant open cable stitch, while the sleeves are knitted in a smooth stocking stitch, creating a beautiful contrast.
The bloomers are designed to be adorably practical, worked in the round from the top down with one simple seam at the gusset, ensuring a comfortable fit for little ones. They are the perfect complement to the cardigan and bonnet, making this set ideal for baby gifts or special occasions.
The bonnet, crafted in one piece, features a back section that is seamlessly closed in the round using DPNs. Its design is for a snug and traditional fit; however, if you prefer a looser style, we suggest sizing up to accommodate your preferences.
Sizes: Newborn, 0-3m, 3-6m, 6-12m, and 12-24m. Please note that the bloomers come with an additional newborn size for your convenience.
Needles: For these delightful projects, you will need circular needles and DPNs in sizes 3.50mm and 4.00mm, as well as a cable needle for the cable stitch patterns.
Yarn: This pattern uses DK weight yarn. For the cardigan, you'll need 50g balls: a total of 3 (3, 3, 4) balls, the bloomers require 50g balls: 2 (2, 2, 2, 3) balls, and the bonnet calls for just 50g balls: 1 (1, 2, 2) balls. Choose your favorite colors to create stunning pieces that will surely be cherished!
Bring your knitting skills to life with this beautiful cardigan, bonnet, and bloomers set, and create adorable outfits for the special little ones in your life. Happy knitting!
