Product Details

Presenting the first in a series of free basic patterns….Watch the Birdie! Adorable bluebird buttons bring the fun factor to this simple striped cardigan.

Relax and enjoy knitting this basic unisex cardigan, sized from newborn right up to 4 years. A fabulous blank canvas for you to explore stripes, colour blocks, pops of neon, fun buttons, embroidery…whatever takes your fancy.

Knit in fingering/4ply yarn, this is an excellent stashbuster. Take a look at all your leftovers and combine them to make something truly useful. I used six colours for my sample…could this also be the perfect knit for a miniskein set??

Yarn This is a free pattern, originally designed to use a yarn kit that came free with a magazine. In order to minimise production time and costs, I have not included yarn quantities. As a guide, expect to use 220 (280, 340, 400, 475 // 550, 600, 700) m total.
