The Skipper Kids Collection features four sweet summer sweaters for little ones. The four patterns, a cute picot edged pullover, vintage inspired lace and bobble cardigan, sweet flowery cardigan, and ruffle neck textured cardigan, are sure to please even the most discerning youngster in your life.

Worthy of Note
Inspired by Tyrolean knits filled with lace and bobbles, this cute cardigan is influenced by a vintage Lanz of Salzburg design. Knit in pieces from the bottom up and seamed using mattress stitch, it is destined to become an heirloom piece passed down for years to come.
