Think of this sweater as a template. It’s a great first sweater with all the basic components. Add colorwork or stripes if you fancy or change the hem and cuffs. If you’re feeling adventurous you can even change the neckline. Grow-with-me Tip #3--the rolled hem--is featured here (details on this in the book). Tucker is swinging in the size 6 and Charlie (3 years younger) wore it on the cover.
