Mint Bunny Duo 🐰

A delicate set of two children's cardigans in a mint shade with white bunnies — a great idea for a "matching" look or a gift for twins/close-in-age siblings. The stockinette looks even and neat, raglan lines read cleanly, button bands look tidy and give the garment a "shop-bought" appearance. The bunny applique/intarsia is executed neatly, though there is slight fabric pullaround the motif in places. Light wooden buttons and a calm palette give a pleasant, warm aesthetic.

Knitting method and techniques

Knitting needles; top‑down raglan; stockinette stitch; button bands in garter stitch / ribbing; working buttonholes; intarsia / two‑color jacquard on stockinette; cuffs in 1×1 rib.

Materials

• Children's yarn in mint (merino/acrylic or cotton/acrylic), yardage ~250–300 m/100 g — about 220–260 g for two cardigans
• White yarn for the motif (same weight) — about 40–70 g
• Light wooden buttons 18–22 mm — roughly 18–24 pcs (about 9–12 per garment)
• Matching thread for sewing buttons, darning/knitting needle
• Circular/double‑pointed needles US 1.5–3.5 / 2.5–3.5 mm (according to gauge), markers, stitch holders

Care instructions

Washing: hand wash or machine wash on "wool/delicate" 30°C in a laundry bag, using liquid detergent without bleach. Spin minimally (up to 600 rpm) or blot with a towel. Drying: lay flat only on a level surface, reshape raglan and bands; do not dry on a radiator or hang. Blocking/steam: light steaming through a damp cloth, do not press the iron; avoid overheating buttons. Storage: folded to prevent stretching of bands.
