Knitting pattern cardigan Sophia - girls 2 - 10 years in 5 sizes

This cute girls cardigan has a beautiful structure, but is only knitted with simple knitting stitches, namely only knit and purl. This cardigan is knitted with a mixture of wool and alpaca and is great for autumn and winter. If you want a cardigan more suitable for spring and summer, knit this cardigan with a cotton blend. (The pink cardigan for size 4 years is made with wool and alpaca, the blue cardigan for size 10 years is made with a cotton blend)
