When my kids are in school, I always want them to have a little piece of me with them all day. I love to knit them sweaters and hats that they can brag about to their friends. Hence Mi Escuelita.

It’s a comfy cardigan with a large shawl collar that makes my kids feel like my arms are wrapped around them when they wear it in their chilly classrooms, or as they go on school trips to the zoo or the museum. Make your favorite kid a little piece of you, too.

Old School Song
Mi escuelita, mi escuelita,
yo la quiero con amor
porque en ella,
porque en ella
es que aprendo mi lección.
Por la mañana temprano
lo primero que yo hago
saludar a mi maestra
y despues a mi trabajo.

Errata:
After all neck and raglan decreases have been completed, there will remain 34 [36, 38, 40, 42] sts.

So if you continue the 4 decrease rows until you reach this stitch count (or near it) you should be fine.
