This jacket is completely seamless. Body of jacket is worked flat in one piece, bottom up, to armholes. Sleeve stitches are then picked up and worked top down before making a double cuff.

Shoulder seams are grafted using Kitchener Stitch.

Sizes are included from newborn to 4 years old.

You can use any yarn which you can get gauge with, I used Stylecraft DK, and for the smallest size, made two jackets out of a single ball of each colour.

Colours given were my customer’s choice. I look forward to seeing yours.

I found circular needles worked better than dpn’s, certainly its easier to work the double cuff using circs.
YOU WILL NEED a 2nd 3.25mm circ or could use straights, initially you make 1 rib section, then a 2nd one before working both together.
