MATERIALS

  • 4 buttons for all sizes
  • F253 Hayfield Baby Blossom DK, shade 356

  • 1 set of 3.25mm (UK10, US3) double pointed needles for the armholes

If you are using a shade with pink and green spots, before beginning to knit unwind a little yarn from the outside of the ball and check whether it’s green spots or pink spots that appear first. If you have green spots first, knit from the outside of the ball. If you have pink spots first, rewind yarn or knit from inside of the ball. This will ensure that the ‘flowers’ (pink spots) appear above the ‘leaves’ (green spots).
