Capucine’s Baby Cardigan knitting pattern is an easy, beginner-friendly sweater worked up in one piece. With minimal shaping and sewing, basic increases and decreases, and using only the knit and purl stitches, it’s a great pattern for knitters who are new to making garments.

Sized 12-18 months, it’s a wonderful gift for a baby’s first birthday, or a thoughtful handmade gift for a baby shower. Every new mom receives a hundred tiny newborn clothes, so give them something useful in the future that baby’s sure not to outgrow.

The straight-forward shaping makes this baby sweater ideal for a boy or girl. My printable PDF will walk you through every step with detailed instructions and photos.
