Girl's Cardigans in Sirdar Snuggly Doodle DK – Pattern 5209
This downloadable PDF knitting pattern from Sirdar presents two classic girls' cardigans designed for babies and young children, sized from birth through to 7 years. The pattern is rated intermediate in difficulty and offers knitters the choice between a Round Neck Cardigan and a V Neck Cardigan — two timeless silhouettes that are wardrobe staples for little ones. Both designs are worked in Sirdar Snuggly Doodle DK, a soft double knitting weight yarn perfectly suited to children's garments.
Two Designs in One Pattern
Round Neck Cardigan
The Round Neck Cardigan features a neat, classic neckline that is ideal for everyday wear and layering. It is knitted in Sirdar Snuggly Doodle DK shade 211 and fastened with a single Sirdar Elegant Button, Code B5600 – 0097. The rounded neck finish gives this cardigan a sweet, traditional look well suited to babies and toddlers alike.
V Neck Cardigan
The V Neck Cardigan offers a slightly more grown-up aesthetic with its angled neckline, making it a great choice for older children in the size range. This version is worked in Sirdar Snuggly Doodle DK shade 203 and is also fastened with a single Sirdar Elegant Button, Code B5611 – 0902. The V neck shaping requires careful decreasing on each side of the neckline, adding a touch of additional technique for the intermediate knitter.
Sizing and Measurements
The pattern covers six sizes to fit chest measurements from 41 cm (16 in) up to 66 cm (26 in), corresponding to ages 0–6 months through to 6–7 years. Actual finished measurements range from approximately 47 cm to 72 cm in chest circumference, allowing for comfortable ease. Full lengths range from 22 cm to 38 cm, and sleeve lengths — which are noted as adjustable — range from 15 cm to 33 cm, making it easy to customise the fit as children grow.
Materials Required
- Yarn: Sirdar Snuggly Doodle DK — 2 to 5 x 50g balls depending on size (shade 211 for the Round Neck; shade 203 for the V Neck)
- Needles: One pair of 4mm (UK8 / USA6) knitting needles and one pair of 3¼mm (UK10 / USA3) knitting needles
- Notions: Stitch holders and one Sirdar Elegant Button per cardigan
The pattern also notes that the designs are suitable for a wide range of Sirdar Snuggly yarns, including Snuggly DK, Snuggly Baby Crofter DK, Snuggly Pearls DK, Snuggly Baby Bamboo DK, Snuggly Spots DK, Snuggly Rascal DK, Snuggly Pattercake DK, Snuggly Cashmere Merino, and Snuggly 100% Cotton, giving knitters excellent flexibility in yarn choice. Yarn amounts may vary when substituting.
Knitting Techniques and Stitches Used
Both cardigans are primarily constructed using stocking stitch (alternating knit and purl rows), which creates the smooth, classic fabric typical of children's knitwear. Ribbing worked on the smaller 3¼mm needles is used for the welts, cuffs, and button bands, providing neat, stretchy edges that hold their shape through wear and washing.
- Stocking stitch — the main fabric of both cardigans, worked on 4mm needles

Review summary
Reviewers mostly find the pattern easy to follow and the finished cardigan pretty and well made. A few knitted it in a different DK yarn when the suggested wool was out of stock. One reviewer found the thumb method instruction unclear, and complaints like this are uncommon.
