Baby Wrap Jacket Knitting Pattern | Seamless Top-Down Cardigan | Raglan Jacket with I-Cord | PDF Pattern

The wrap jacket from the "Elva" series combines minimalist Scandinavian design with a thoughtfully designed, adjustable fit. It provides your baby with security, freedom of movement, and cozy warmth – from day one.

The jacket is knitted seamlessly from the top down. This allows you to easily adjust the length and enjoy a harmonious knit pattern without any bothersome seams.

The garter stitch pattern makes the jacket wonderfully soft, stretchy, and cuddly. It gently adapts to your baby's movements without restricting them, ensuring a particularly comfortable feel.

The extra-long cuffs grow with your child. They're initially folded up and can be rolled down bit by bit with each growth spurt. This way, the jacket accompanies your baby through several sizes and stays in place for significantly longer than conventional baby clothes.

A charming detail is the fine I-cord trim, which gives the jacket a high-quality, clean finish. It closes with delicate I-cord ties that can be individually adjusted and perfectly complement the jacket's simple, natural look.

The overlapping layers of the wrap provide excellent protection and keep the sensitive tummy area comfortably warm. At the same time, the jacket opens wide for easy dressing and undressing – especially practical in the first few months of life.

With its modern shape, adjustable cuffs, seamless top-down construction and loving details, the "Elva" wrap jacket is a garment that combines functionality, comfort and timeless aesthetics – and brings joy for many months.

Together, they create a harmoniously coordinated set in timeless Scandinavian style – ideal for a baby's layette or as a thoughtful gift for a newborn.
