Rainbow Dove Knit Cardigan | Infant Sz. 3M | c. 1970s
Details
A joyful hand-knit baby cardigan from the 1970s, featuring a bold, intarsia-knit rainbow arcing across the back—anchored by a small white dove in flight. Knit in a dreamy cornflower blue acrylic yarn, this deadstock piece captures the peace-loving spirit of the era with a softness suited for tiny shoulders.
The front closes with a row of pearly blue buttons, and the raglan sleeves give it a flexible, comfortable fit. The construction is snug but stretchy, ideal for layering over a onesie or adding a pop of nostalgia to a modern-day baby ensemble. The yarn has that telltale 1970s loft—lightweight but warm, with a soft brushed texture.
This sweater has never been worn and is in pristine vintage condition. Whether gifted to a new arrival or saved as a keepsake, it’s a rare and tender artifact from an era of handcrafted, love-soaked children’s wear.
