Project: Baby Sweater
-
-
This is a variation on a knit-flat top down raglan that I’ve seen in a ton of other places. I chose this one because it’s designed to be joined in the round after only a few buttons. Size 7 needles, Caron Simply Soft in black…wait, a black baby sweater? The baby’s nickname is Toothless! So I’ll be embroidering the dragon from How to Train Your Dragon on the front. The chart for that design is here.
