errata: p.51: 2 needles sizes are listed in the pattern information but only one size is actually needed to knit this sweater. The sample was worked on Size 7 (4.5) mm needles. Use whatever size needles you need to get gauge throughout the entire project. p.52: Wrong side rows in the decrease section should be worked in rib pat not purled.

Don’t boys look so handsome when studious? The three boys modeling this sweater range from ages 5-7 and vary in size. The stretchy rib on this design makes it particularly grow-able and the cuffs can be folded up to fit shorter arms. It is just as charming worn oversized as it is fitted. This sweater features a couple grow-with-me tips! Shown in size 8. Book includes template for elbow patches and instructions for making your own.
