Free Crochet Baby Sweater Pattern for #3 Yarn
Like shooting fish in a barrel Raglan Cardigan-Free Crochet Baby Cardigan Blueprint
After the huge popularity of my Evelyn Crochet Baby Sweater, I decided to design a gratis crochet pattern for a baby cardigan. This is my starting time complimentary pattern for a infant cardigan and I have a few more ideas in my head.
The cardigan is worked top-down in one slice and has an easy raglan pattern which means at that place is no shaping involved for armholes. This makes it a very beginner-friendly design that anyone tin bask.
This free baby cardigan design includes 6 sizes and runs up to a size 4T. I am sure you lot will enjoy making a few as your baby grows.
The smallest 2 sizes take only 2 skeins of yarn. I designed it using the readily available Vanna's Pick yarn and information technology comes in an array of beautiful colors. And so without further ado, allow's kickoff making!
