Kinder Cardigans with buttons

Using the leftover fabric from the joggers, I managed to cut out two cardigans. 

The pattern is The Kinder Cardigan from Wendy Ward's Book "A Beginner’s Guide To Sewing With Knitted Fabrics"

I interfaced the lower section of the front bands and added buttons and buttonholes. I also made the cuffs a little smaller and ran a slight gathering stitch round the bottom of the sleeves to help ease them onto the cuffs.

With the buttons and the tighter cuffs I hope these versions will be a little cosier to wear.









We can add the brown cardigan into the Paisley SWAP.
1 jacket, 1 fleece, 1 cardigan, 1 shirt, 8 knit tops, 1 pair jeans, 1 pair joggers, 1 skirt.

The animal print pieces could be worn with the plain items, but not with the paisley (IMO).

Fabric sewn so far in 2025 - 11m, fabric purchased zero!

  • 3m of teal jersey
  • 2m of print/brown sweater knit
  • 3m of animal print jersey
  • 3m of brown poly knit
