Hi all,
I have a knitting pattern for a baby cardigan which goes along with a YouTube tutorial and I wondered if anybody could resize it for an 18 month old?
I don’t really understand resizing patterns!
Does anyone know a good site or book that could help me get to grips with adjusting patterns?

What is the name of your pattern?
You can look for similar patterns (style and gauge) on Ravelry and see what numbers they use. You can work up a swatch with your yarn to see what gauge you get, then work out the cast on and adjustments from there.
You can see if knitting the sweater with a slightly heavier weight yarn than the pattern recommends will work.
Searching on Ravelry might also help you find a similar sweater in the 18 month old size.
