How did I miss this it's lovely Marianna, I can't keep up with all your lovely creations. :)
ReplyDeletethank you!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteLove this pattern. I wish there was more sizes. Please more sizes!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat is KFB please? Lovely little cardi
ReplyDeleteKFB = knit in front and back of stitch
ReplyDeleteHow can I print this pattern, please??
ReplyDeleteIf you look at the bottom of the pattern you will see a green box with print friendly on it. Click on this and it will take you to a page that you can print it off.
DeleteFantastic pattern I done the cable one last night and it's easy to do and looks gorgeous,
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your patterns they are fabulous x
I cant see where it says hiw much yarn is required? Can someone guide me please?
ReplyDeleteWhere do I find the 12 month pattern??
ReplyDeleteClick the link for the version with eyelet raglan detailing; that's where the other sizes are.
DeleteGreat! Thanks!
DeleteAnother lovely pattern although I can't see why it couldn't be done for a girl as well.
ReplyDeleteWould love this in 3 to 4
ReplyDeleteIs there a 1 to 2-year-old pattern of the cable version of the cardigan?
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm going to knit 9-12 months pattern as gift for a baby (now he's 3 months years old), and I'd like to make the cable version for the next Autumn, using 3,5 mm needles. I printed the Max baby cardigan with eyelet raglan, but I'm not sure where I have to insert the cable on the front. Please, can you help me? Many thanks (sorry for my not good English!). P.S.: I'd be happy to make this gift, because the baby will come back to China in September
ReplyDeletePlease could I have the 6-9mths pattern for the max baby cardigan with cable front.
ReplyDeleteIs there a pattern available for the cable version age 6 months?

Hi Marianna, thank you for the lovely cabled cardigan pattern. Do you have the cabled version in bigger sizes? Ive noticed you have Max/Maxine on Ravelry but I love the cable detail. Many thanks in advance :) x
