Notes

classic kid’s cardi - will never go out of fashion.

I knit this in one piece, converting the “side-seam” stitch of the front parts into a slip stitch on RS rows. Knitting together until the arm holes, then finished seperately. Shoulder seams with 3-needle-bind-off.
every 20th row or so I add a short row to the button-band to even out height.

Buttons are kam snaps.

Yarn held double
5 skeins
swatch: gauge is matching in stitches, but I have less rows - well, I am better at measuring than calculating, so fine.

This sweet cardigan and the matching romper came back to me after Junior was born.
Because the Kamsnaps put too much strain on the fabric, I removed them, sew a ribbon on the wrong side of the button bands, and attached new Kamsnaps. Much better, a lot more stable, and a nice finishing detail,too!
