This is a lovely lacy cardigan pattern for that precious little girl in your life. It boasts a beautiful lace and cable pattern on the fronts and sleeves. Each row is written out. No chart on this one! You won’t have to figure out how to decrease the lace while working raglan decreases nor neck decreases. It’s done for you!

There are two sizes: newborn and 3 to 6 months. The small cardigan will fit a chest circumference of 17”/43.2cm - 19”/48.3cm. The large size will fit a chest circumference of 18.5”/47cm - 22”/55.9cm. This is a perfect cardigan for a gorgeous baby shower gift.

I chose sumptuous yarns to be soft next to baby’s skin. The small size uses Tosh Merino Light and the large size uses Anzula Ava. Both are fingering weight. The small size uses size US3/3.25mm knitting needles and the large size uses size US4/3.5mm knitting needles.

The cardigan has no side seams. There are 3-needle bind off joins at the underarms, the only “seams”! There are five buttons down the front garter stitch button band. The collar, waist, and sleeve wrists are ribbed. It so pretty!
