Bertie Cardigan
Discover the perfect blend of style and comfort with this delightful cardigan knitting pattern, featuring an intricate triple cable panel on the back and charming single cables adorning the front and tops of the sleeves. Designed with saddle-style sleeves that elegantly stop short of connecting with the neck band, this design allows the beautifully crafted front cable to flow seamlessly over the shoulder for a polished look. The cardigan also features a curved semi-raglan design, providing both a comfortable fit and a flattering silhouette for little ones.
Sizes Available: 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, 1-2 years, 2-4 years, 4-6 years. This wide range of sizes makes it a fantastic choice for gifts or personal projects tailored to children of various ages.
Suggested Needles: Utilize a 4.00mm (US 6) needle for the main body, alongside a 3.50mm (US 4) needle for the ribbing details, plus a cable needle for those lovely cable stitches.
Recommended Yarn: This cardigan requires DK weight yarn, with an estimated 50g x 3 (3, 4, 4, 5, 6) balls needed. We suggest using Drops Merino Extra Fine, which provides excellent softness and warmth, with each ball containing approximately 105 meters of yarn.
Buttons Needed: This stylish cardigan pattern calls for 3 buttons for sizes 0-3 months to 6-12 months, and 4 buttons for sizes 1-2 years to 4-6 years, allowing for easy and secure closure while adding a decorative touch.
