The Greyson Baby Cardigan is a sweet crochet baby cardigan pattern sized for newborns through 12 months, perfect for baby showers or handmade gifts!

This unisex design works up beautifully in DK weight yarn and features a classic chevron colorwork detail, long sleeves, and a buttoned front. It can be customized for both boys and girls - just move the button band to the other front flap and sew the buttons on the other side! (To be fair, I don't think most new parents pay too much attention to that sort of thing, but this crochet pattern has you covered either way.)
