Easy Baby Hooded Jacket Cardigan Knitting Pattern PDF Aran Age 3mths - 2 years

Knit a cosy hooded cardigan for babies and toddlers with this easy-to-follow digital knitting pattern.

The cardigan combines a smooth stocking-stitch body with contrasting garter-stitch sleeves, hood and front bands. A neat six-row garter-stitch border finishes the lower edge, helping it lie flat without ribbing. Two simple buttons complete the front fastening.

The cardigan is worked flat in separate back and front pieces. After the shoulder seams are joined, the sleeves are picked up from the armholes and knitted downwards in garter stitch. The hood is picked up around the neckline and finished with a top seam.
