Boys' Cardigans for Ages 0 to 15
A boys' cardigan is the easiest knit to get on and off. It opens down the front, so it goes over a shirt or T-shirt without pulling over his head. MINOTI cardigans for boys run from newborn to age 15. A cardigan suits the in-between days: put it on for a cool morning and carry it by lunchtime. For pullovers, see Knitwear.
A cardigan usually goes over a shirt or polo, so make sure there is room for that layer. Most boys take their usual size, and going up one leaves space to grow. A boys' school cardigan is usually grey, navy or black, so check the uniform list before you order. Outside term time, a black cardigan for boys looks smart over a shirt at family parties. For washing, follow the care label.

Your questions answered
Each boys' knitted cardigan at MINOTI opens down the front and comes in height-based centimetre sizes for boys aged 0 to 15, and a 6-year-old usually takes 122 cm.
Should a boys' cardigan go under a school blazer?
Yes, if the school allows it. A cardigan sits over a shirt and under a blazer or coat, so buy his usual height size rather than going up: an 11-year-old starting Year 7 usually takes 152 cm.
What size grey cardigan does an 8-year-old boy need?
An 8-year-old usually takes 134 cm. If he is tall for his age or you want room for a thick shirt underneath, go up one to 140 cm. A 13-year-old usually takes 164 cm.
