MillaMia Little Folk Cardigan PDF

The MillaMia Little Folk Cardigan is a great stranded colorwork skill stretcher, with a mix of motifs including geometric bands, hearts, and little children holding hands. The colorwork adds pizzaz to a classic set-in sleeve cardigan, and thoughtful touches like contrasting color trims and slightly puffed sleeves add to the overall style. MillaMia Naturally Soft Merino comes in a wide range of colors perfect for mixing and matching, and its smooth and soft feel is comfortable for kids while its machine-washable care is preferred by caregivers. This cardigan is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Choose the Little Folk Cardigan for a showstopping sweater that will keep special kids cozy, warm, and wrapped in color. Colorwork patterns are charted only.
