Knitting For Olive | Kids Garter Cardigan Pattern & Yarn Pack
Cosy Comfort in Every Stitch
The Kids Garter Cardigan is the perfect blend of simplicity and charm. Worked from the top down in soft Heavy Merino, this cardigan is as practical as it is stylish. Raglan increases create a sweet eyelet detail along the seams, adding a touch of playfulness to an otherwise classic knit.
Designed with flexibility in mind, the cardigan is worked back and forth for an easy knit, with sleeves that can be seamed or worked in the round to suit your preference. The result is a cosy, everyday cardigan that’s perfect for layering and keeping little ones snug through every season.
