Discover the charming children's version of our popular design, the Ephesus Mini, inspired by the elegance and simplicity of the Ephesus Tee for adults. This pattern provides you step-by-step instructions to create an adorable cardigan for the little ones of the house.
The button band is worked together with the yoke and body, so there is no fussing with picking up stitches afterwards. You have two options to choose from: opening the buttonholes after completing the cardigan and sewing its edges for a neat finish or using snap fasteners. Instructions for both options are available for your convenience.
The pattern is available in 6 children's sizes, ranging from 2 to 12 years old. It is advisable to select the size based on the chest and upper arm circumference measurements to best fit each child’s unique growth rate. The lengths of the sleeves, body and yoke depth can be modified to your personal preference.
