Cars Cardigan

The Cars Cardigan is a cheerful children’s design that combines knitting and crochet in a fun cardigan decorated with car motifs. Worked in light worsted yarn with a classic V‑neck and button front, it features crocheted cars in orange and beige, sewn on as charming appliqués.

It’s perfect as a handmade gift for a car‑loving child.

The cardigan is worked from the bottom up, and the sleeves are set-in. Each part of the cardigan is knitted separately and then all parts are sewn together.
