Baby knits are super quick and really fun to do! After knitting a couple of Beloved bonnets, I wanted to knit a present for my cousin’s new baby.
I picked an adorable sweater pattern called the Norwegian Fir Cardigan by OGE Knitwear Designs. This time I stayed away from angora and went with a more practical yarn choice — Sublime Cashmere Merino Silk. I love this yarn, it is super soft and has a lovely sheen to it. The sweater turned out really cute!
To accompany the sweater, I made the Garter Ear Flap Baby Hat by Purl Soho using the same yarn. Quick, easy, done!
Pattern: Garter Ear Flap Hat by Purl Soho
Yarn: Baby Cashmere Merino Silk by Sublime Yarns in “Dusty Pink”
Needles: Sizes US 7 & 8 / 4.5 & 5 mm
I really enjoyed making this sweater and would totally knit it again. The lace detail works beautifully to create the raglan yoke.
I think I’ve found the perfect baby shower ensemble! I love the soft pink paired with this cotton dress. Momma approved!

This is super cute Preeti !!! I love it. What size did you knit this? I am knitting the Asaka pullover from Quince & co. for my grandniece and I just can’t put down my knitting! Best way to meditate, I say.

Hi Aparna,
The cardigan I knit is in the 3-6 month size. I love the cute little pocket on the Asaka pullover. I am sure your grandniece will love wearing hers!
