Come and play with the Jack of Diamonds! This striking seamless cardigan takes a classic shape and updates it with graphic patterned bands that suit both boys and girls.
Kids love the easy drape of the v-neck and the fun coloured diamonds. Modern parents will appreciate the contemporary unisex vibe and the easy-care yarn. The cardigan can be dressed up for parties, or paired with jeans or leggings for playtime. Sized from 3m to 10y, why not make one for all the kids in your life?
Construction
Intermediate knitters will enjoy the cardigan’s unusual and interesting construction. Knit from the bottom up and entirely seamless, the cardigan features stranded front bands with a simple charted motif. Stitches are picked up to knit the sleeves, which are shaped with short row shoulder caps.
Larger sizes have a wider neck band:
For sizes 3m-12m, the diamond motif will appear once on the band;
For sizes 18m-4y, the motif will appear twice;
For sizes 6y-10y, the motif will appear three times.
