Charlie Cardigan

This beautiful cardigan knitting pattern is highly recommended for confident beginners looking to enhance their skills. The design is worked from the bottom up, allowing for a seamless stitching experience. The body of the cardigan is knitted in one piece, back and forth, and is then divided at the armholes, enabling the fronts and back to be crafted separately. The charming raglan sleeves are created flat and sewn into place afterwards for a polished finish.

The cuffs and collar feature a lovely twisted rib pattern, while the button bands are knitted in a classic garter stitch, adding both texture and style to this stylish cardigan. One of the highlights of this pattern is the feather cable stitch, which is both elegant and charted for easy comprehension, making the project enjoyable for knitters.

Sizes available: 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, 1-2 years, 2-4 years, and 4-6 years—ensuring that you can create this beautiful cardigan for your little one as they grow.

Yarn requirement: This patterned cardigan uses DK yarn, available in 50g balls, with the following quantities needed: 3 (3, 4, 5, 6, 6) balls depending on the child's size.

Recommended knitting needles: You will need both 3.50mm (US 4) and 4.00mm (US 6) needles, along with a cable needle for the feather cable stitch, to bring this delightful cardigan to life.
