Rainbow Bloom — A Hooded Granny-Square Cardigan
A cosy, boxy hooded cardigan built from one happy motif: a granny square with a plump puff-stitch flower at its heart. The magic is in the yarn — the whole garment is crocheted from a single hand-dyed variegated colourway, so every square comes off your hook a different blend of magenta, purple, teal and turquoise without ever changing colour mid-round. No ends to weave from colour changes, no planning charts: the yarn does the design work for you.
Instant digital download — print-friendly PDF, 10 pages, with step-by-step photos throughout.
✿ One pattern, two size ranges
Every measurement is given twice, so you can make the matching set from the same cake of yarn:
- Children — 2–3, 4–5, 6–7 and 8 years
- Adults — S, M, L and XL
The children's square is 5 rounds, the adult square adds one extra granny round — everything else is identical, and all stitch counts are printed as child (adult).
