Baby Boys' Cardigans
A baby boy cardigan is the layer you can put on and take off without pulling anything over his head. That matters with a newborn who dislikes necklines and with a wriggly 18-month-old alike. MINOTI cardigans for baby boys run from birth to 24 months and sit neatly over a vest, a shirt or a baby grow for family visits, christenings and cool mornings in the pushchair.
A baby boy knitted cardigan opens down the front, so it is easier to put on a sleeping baby than a jumper. For a baby boy cardigan at 0-3 months, choose 62 cm; he will usually move into 68 cm at around 3 months. A baby boy navy cardigan hides everyday spills well and goes with grey, cream or check. Knitwear can stretch when hung, so dry it flat and check the care label before the first wash.
Your questions answered
MINOTI baby boys' cardigans are front-opening knitted layers for boys aged 0 to 24 months, worn over vests, shirts and baby grows, with a 6-month-old usually in 74 cm.
How many cardigans does a newborn boy need for the first few months?
Two or three are usually enough, so one can be in the wash. Buy 56 cm for the first weeks only if he is small, as most babies move into 62 cm within a month or so. A thin knit and a thicker one cover warm and cold days.
Can a baby boy's cardigan be worn over a shirt for a christening?
Yes, a buttoned cardigan over a shirt is a classic christening look. Leave it unbuttoned in a warm church and fasten it outside. A 9-month-old usually takes 80 cm, so check his length against the size on the product page first.
