The Everyday Cardigan is another top-down pattern from Mary Rhodes. Worked in DK weight yarn, this practical and wearable sweater pattern explores top-down design, crocheted short rows, and improved plackets and buttonholes.

Instructions are provided for newborn through 4T sizes, for both boys and girls, and two different buttonhole sizes. The sample shown here was made for a 12-month size girl and used the larger buttonhole size. Make it in one color or with contrasting trim!
