Curious baby zig zag cardigan
This beautifully crafted cardigan is designed for knitters looking to create a cozy garment that is worked back and forth from the top down in one seamless piece. This versatile design features separated sleeves at the underarm, allowing you to knit the body and sleeves in one go until you reach the hem. After completing the body, the sleeves are then worked in the round from underarm to cuff for a smooth finish. The final touch is adding the front bands and collar, meticulously crafted for a polished look. This pattern includes sizes suitable for both curious babies and toddlers, ensuring a perfect fit as they grow!
