Cars



Pattern: Cars
Yarn: Lanoso Alara 50% cotton 50% acrylic
Needle: 3.5 mm, 3 mm
Time to knit: 10 days

I knit this raglan cardigan for my nephew, who will turn 4 years in two weeks time and as most 4-year-old guys is crazy about cars of all makes and models. My inspiration for the stripes and the embroidery came from this vest I came upon on Ravelry.

If you like the cardigan and would like to knit one for your own 4-year-old, you can download it from here:

    CUTE!!! My son would love a car sweater. (Actually, he'd REALLY love a train sweater, but he's almost equally infatuated with all modes of transportation.)Your FO looks great, and I bet it's cozy being acrylic/cotton. ^_^

    That is amazing, I have girls but can imagine it would be fab in girl colours as well and great for a change from kittens and hearts.

    Lovely post! There’s something so nostalgic about the way you’ve captured cars—not just as machines, but as memories tied to moments and people. It reminds me how every car has a story, whether it ends in a family photo album or at a scrap metal yard in Yatala, waiting to be recycled into something new. Funny how even the end of a car’s life can be part of a bigger journey. Really enjoyed reading this—thanks for sharing!
