This little cardigan features diamonds, lines of cable, and double moss stitch. The button and buttonhole bands are made separately, so you simply sew them on to the required sides. Make it for the little boy or girl in your life in more than one colour. Siobhan is the Irish version of the name Joan, and is pronounced Shiv-awn, which means “God is gracious.”
