This is a wonderful baby sweater for any adorable newborn - 3 month old you may know! All stockinette/stocking stitch except for an easy ribbing at neck, wrists and waist. It’s worked top down, allowing for lengthening easily if desired.

There are NO SEAMS! Yep, you heard that right! All extra stitches are easily picked up and it’s worked in the round, so very little purling. That makes it faster. The long sleeved pullover is worked in self striping yarn. So cute. The coloring of the short sleeve version is a great way to use up leftovers of fingering weight you have in your stash. This would also be adorable in one color.

The crew neck is very stretchy with a special elastic bind off (full instructions included - it’s easy). So it’ll fit those sweet big heads!
