You’ll love the squishy warmth of garter stitch for baby sweaters. This cozy little jacket is knit in one piece from the top down, without seams. It’s simple to knit, but it has just the right details: long sleeves, buttoned front, comfy raglan yoke, a warm collar, and contrasting pocket linings. The only sewing you need to do is to stitch the optional pockets in place.

Skills needed
Knit/purl, picking up and knitting, working in the round, basic sewing
