Category: Crocheting

For: Infant/Baby

Style: Outdoorsy, Casual, Classic, Retro / Vintage, Cute


Materials

Fingering yarn, crochet hook size f (3.75 mm), button, needle and thread

What was your inspiration?

This design was inspired by a photo of a knit baby cardigan. We are heading into winter here in New Zealand and I have been making lots of cozy sweaters for our new daughter, due any day now!

What are you most proud of?

Being able to keep our little one warm with something I've handmade with love. :)

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Use a yarn that you can get more of it needed, since there are no yardage estimates available due to it being made-to measure, etc.

This is beautiful! Have you thought of an adult version?

The pattern is "made to measure" and I've stated in the pattern listing..."If you are good with crochet, you could easily make this in an adult size using your own custom measurements. (Try taking the measurements from your favorite sweater.)"

What a great idea! I've bought your patterns before and love them; will add this one to my shopping cart right now! I love how Craftsy lets you keep adding patterns from different artists to the cart, and then pay in one step. Thanks!!!
