Knitting is a wonderful hobby that allows you to create beautiful and functional pieces of clothing. One of the most popular items to knit is a baby cardigan. Not only is it cute and practical, but it is also a great way to practice your knitting skills. In this tutorial, we will show you how to knit a baby cardigan with two needles.

Step 5: Knit the Sleeves

Transfer the first 18 stitches and the last 20 stitches of the cardigan to separate needles. Leave the center 12 stitches on a stitch holder.

Using a third needle, pick up 8 stitches under the armhole. Knit these stitches, then knit the stitches from the first needle. Pick up 8 stitches under the other armhole and knit these stitches, then knit the stitches from the second needle. You should now have all the stitches on one needle.

Row 2: Purl all stitches.

Repeat these two rows until the sleeves measure 4 inches from the underarm.

Step 6: Knit the Neckline

Step 7: Knit the Button Band

Starting at the bottom of the right front edge, pick up and knit 2 stitches for every 3 rows along the edge of the cardigan. Knit the first row.

Next row: Purl all stitches.

Repeat these two rows until the button band measures 1 inch in length.

Bind off all stitches.

Sew buttons onto the left front edge, making sure they line up with the buttonholes on the right front edge.

Step 8: Finishing

Weave in all loose ends with a tapestry needle. Block the baby cardigan by laying it flat on a towel and pinning it into shape. Gently mist the cardigan with water and let it dry completely.
