Yarn and Materials

Sirdar Snuggly Sweetie is a super chunky weight yarn that features the brand's signature pompom-style texture, giving the finished fabric a wonderfully tactile, cloud-like appearance. Each stitch creates a visible pompom effect, meaning even simple stitch patterns produce a visually striking and luxuriously soft result — perfect for baby knitwear.

• Additional yarn: Oddments of Sirdar Snuggly DK in a matching colour, used specifically for casting on, casting off, and sewing up seams
• Knitting needles: 1 pair of 4mm (UK 8 / USA 6) knitting needles
• Notions: Stitch holders, a reel of matching sewing thread, and buttons (1 for the Round Neck Cardigan; 3 for the Hooded Cardigan)
