Tuffy is a sweet and simple sweater for a baby boy or girl. It is designed with approximately 2 to 2.5 inches positive ease, to give a little room for growth. Tuffy is a yoke sweater worked seamlessly in the round from the bottom up, with little stranded embellishments on the collar and sleeves.

The stranded colorwork pattern is based off of a traditional Palestinian design, tuffah, which means apples.

You could also knit this short-sleeved and in cotton for a cute summer top!
