Premature & Newborn Ribbed Knit Cardigan in Classic White | Dandelion
A beautifully classic V-neck cardigan in a warm white ribbed knit, designed specifically for premature and newborn babies from 3 lbs upward. Made in Portugal for Dandelion, this is a quietly essential piece — the kind that photographs beautifully at a hospital welcome, goes home in an overnight bag, and becomes a firm favourite for the early weeks and months.
The wide-rib vertical knit gives gentle warmth and soft structure without bulk, making it ideal for layering over a bodysuit for everyday comfort or dressing up for something special. Three small round buttons down the centre front make dressing and nappy changes straightforward even for the tiniest of babies. The smooth V-neck collar border, ribbed cuffs and Dandelion woven label at the neckline are the quiet finishing touches that mark this out as a quality piece.
Available in premature sizes (3–5 lbs and 5–8 lbs) and newborn sizes (0–3 months and 3–6 months) — one of very few cardigans stocked in true premature sizes. A thoughtful baby shower or NICU gift. Gender-neutral. By Dandelion, made in Portugal.

Baby Clothing Size Guide
Sizing can vary between brands, so we've put together this guide to help you find the best fit for your little one. Babies grow at different rates, so always consider your baby's current height and weight alongside their age.
Need help? Get in touch and we'll be happy to advise.
How to Measure
- Height: Measure from the top of the head to the heel, with baby lying flat.
- Weight: Use your most recent health visitor or home scales reading.
- Chest: Measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape horizontal.
- Waist: Measure around the natural waistline, just above the belly button.
- Hips: Measure around the widest part of the hips and bottom.
- Inside leg: Measure from the crotch down to the ankle bone.
- Head circumference: Measure around the widest part of the head, just above the ears.
- Foot length: Stand your child on a sheet of paper, mark the heel and longest toe, then measure between the marks.
Tip: If your baby is between sizes, we generally recommend sizing up for longer wear, especially for sleepsuits and rompers.

Sleepsuits, Rompers & Dresses: Fit Notes
- Sleepsuits: Size up if your baby is long in the body, as height is the key measurement.
- Rompers: Short-leg rompers are more forgiving; go by chest and weight. Long-leg rompers follow the height guide.
- Dresses: Age and height sizing is usually accurate.
