Cardigan, Bootees & Hat with Plaits (64)
Welcome to Knitting Pattern No. 64 by Pizpaw Patterns, featuring a delightful set of items perfect for your knitting projects. This versatile pattern includes a stylish cardigan, adorable bootees, and a charming plaited hat, all designed to fit a 19-22” (48-56 cm) doll or a 0-3 month old baby. Whether you're knitting for a little one or creating something special for a doll, this pattern has you covered.
The pattern requires the use of double-knitting wool, which is essential for achieving the right texture and warmth. For those knitting in the USA, a light worsted or Australian 8 ply yarn can be used as a suitable alternative. This allows knitters from around the world to easily access the materials they need.
To complete this project, you will need a pair of straight needles in sizes 3.25 mm and 4 mm (US sizes 3 and 6), as well as three buttons to fasten the cardigan for a snug fit. Don’t forget to gather ribbon for the bootees, and a crochet hook to help pull yarn through for the adorable hat plaits. These extra touches will make your finished pieces stand out with a professional flair.
The wool requirements for this enchanting project include 1 x 100-gram ball of Main Shade, specifically Stylecraft Special DK in Raspberry (1023), and 1 x 100-gram ball of Contrast Shade, Stylecraft Special DK in White (1001). This pleasant color combination will ensure that your creations are both vibrant and aesthetically pleasing.
