This is a beautiful, lace panel sweater, with stitch detail on the front and stocking/stockinette stitch on the back and sleeves of the garment. Crew neckline and raglan sleeves with fully fashioned detail. Suitable for babies from 0 to 2 years, with instructions for 6 sizes.
There is a button opening at the back neck for ease of wearing.
The sweater is knitted in DK (light worsted /8 ply) yarn and can be knitted in any variety of yarns as long as the knit tension required for the pattern is achieved (I have recommended some different yarn qualities in the description). It is a perfect pattern for all seasons as this design works well in wool, cotton, acrylic and blended yarns.
The knit tension of a 10cm x 10cm (4’’ x 4’’) square, worked in stocking/stockinette stitch on 4mm (US6) needles should be 22 stitches x 28 rows.
The pattern requires the ability to work from written instructions for the lace panel on the body (there is no chart instructions for the lace pattern).
