MATERIALS

Anzula’s Sebastian, 70% Superwash Merino and 30% Sea Cell.

  • Main Color: 1 (2, 2) skeins. I used the color Seaside
  • Contrast Color: 1 (1, 1) skein. I used the color Hyacinth (Please note, Sebastian from Anzula has been discontinued. As an alternative, we’d recommend trying our Posy yarn, a super soft blend of 75% superwash merino, 15% cashmere, and 10% nylon, perfect for this sweet little jumper! You will need 4 to 6 skeins of Posy for the Main Color and 1 skein for the straps)
  • US 2 (3 mm), 24-inch circular needles
  • US 3 (3.25 mm), 24-inch circular needles
  • Two US 2 double pointed needles
  • A size B (2.5 mm) crochet hook
  • A 3/8-inch button. Purl Soho’s Small Mother of Pearl Buttons would be a good choice!

GAUGE
