This unisex baby/children’s cardigan is worked in a combination of single-color slip stitch and a band of bright tri-color slip stitch at the waist and cuffs. Neckband is finished in Garter st. It is worked flat in one piece to the armholes, then divided for front and back. Worked in superwash wool, it makes laundering easy for busy parents and keeps the garment light in weight. Pattern is written out and charted with schematics.
