Stripey McGree Kid's Zebra Cardigan
Calling all Zebra lovers, inspired by love of the movie Madagascar, meet Stripey McGee. Check out the back!
Stripey McGee is one of the simplest cardigans you will ever knit. This super cute project is a seamless raglan cardigan knitted flat from the top down. Once the body is complete, the Sleeves are worked in the round down to the cuff. The button bands are picked up at the end. No sewing up all those seams!
Stripey is constructed from some simple knitted pieces which are sewn to the back, no intarsia here either, did I mention this is a super simple cardigan?
