Rhombuses and Pearls

Featuring cabled rhombuses embellished with charming small nupps (pearls), this cardigan is designed to create an adorable look suitable for both boys and girls. The pattern is relatively easy and a fast-knit experience, yet remains interesting, making it an ideal choice for knitters of all skill levels who want to add a touch of style to any infant's outfit.

The piece is expertly knitted flat from the bottom up, with the band knit in-line with the body, forming an elegant i-cord edge that enhances its aesthetic appeal.

Once complete, the yoke and sleeves are joined to the body, perfectly creating the classic raglan line that adds comfort and style.

This knitting pattern offers both charted and written instructions, ensuring that you have clear guidance as you work through each step. It is specifically designed to utilize sport-weight yarn, making it a durable yet lightweight option for your child.
