Wee Short Notice

Introducing the Wee Short Notice Cardigan – the perfect last-minute gift for welcoming any new baby into the world. This charming cardigan, designed for both boys and girls, is not only stylish but also functional, making it an essential addition to any baby's wardrobe. Knit from the top down, this versatile cardigan features an easy-to-follow pattern with buttons adorning the side, giving it a unique touch. You can choose between long or short sleeves to suit any season or occasion. Plus, a delightful handmade button adds a personal flair, available for purchase in the Etsy shop: Katrinkles.

For your knitting project, you'll need the perfect yarn to achieve that cozy feel. We recommend using sock or fingering weight yarn to create a lightweight yet warm cardigan for your little one. To ensure your cardigan turns out perfectly, use size 3 US (3.25 mm) needles or adjust the size as needed to achieve the correct gauge.

The gauge for this pattern is 26.0 stitches per 4 inches, so be mindful to check your tension before starting. With a yardage requirement of 400 yards, this pattern is both efficient and economical, allowing you to create an adorable garment for newborns. Available in a single size, this cardigan is tailored specifically for newborns, making it a fantastic choice for baby showers or last-minute gift-giving.

Don’t forget to gather your notions! You'll need 8 buttons, either ¾” or 1” in size, to complete this lovely design. Elevate your knitting skills and create a heartfelt gift with the Wee Short Notice Cardigan, perfect for celebrating the arrival of an adorable new baby in any family!
