36 free baby cardigan patterns to fall in love with 🧶

There's something especially lovely about knitting a tiny cardigan for a new baby. 💕

I've been busy putting together three new baby cardigan collections on Knitting Bee - with 36 free patterns to choose from.

Tiny cardigans made especially for those first weeks and months - including easy garter stitch, seamless top-down, lace and classic little styles.
