The initial idea was to make a dress for my daughter in some sort of lace pattern. So I designed a sweater on the paper that has center all ruffled-up at the waist. I considered mock cable, diamond-and-pearls, chevron and eyelet, and honeycomb patterns and settled with woven-cable. The measurements are as follows:

Size to fit 2-3 year old girl.
Chest: 21”
Center back: 18”
Back waist: 8.5”
Cross-back (shoulder to shoulder): 9.25”
Sleeve length to underarm: 8.5”
Quantity of yarn used = 3 skeins
