This baby jacket, inspired by Elizabeth Zimmerman, is knitted in five pieces as far as the armholes. Then all the stitches are knitted on to one long needle and the rest of the jacket is worked back and forth in one piece, using double decreases to shape the shoulders and neckband.

The jacket is worked in a striped pattern, using one plain and one variegated colour of 4 ply sock yarn. Instructions are included for two sizes.

All my ravelry patterns are free to download but, if you enjoy them, please consider making a donation to the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation, a charity which funds research and supports the families of children with a liver disease. You can do this easily by going to my fundraising pagewww.justgiving.com/frankiesknittedstuff

Happy Knitting!
