Laura Lace Panel Sweater
Discover the charm of our stunning lace panel sweater, perfect for little ones aged 0 to 2 years. This beautifully designed sweater features an intricate stitch detail panel on the front, complemented by a soft stocking or stockinette stitch back and sleeves. With its classic crew neckline and fully fashioned raglan sleeves, this cozy piece is an essential addition to any baby’s wardrobe. Our pattern offers detailed instructions for six different sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for your growing child.
For added convenience, the sweater includes a thoughtful button opening at the back neck, making it easy to dress your baby. This delightful design showcases versatility, as it can be knitted using DK (light worsted / 8 ply) yarn in an array of fibers. Whether you opt for wool, cotton, acrylic, or blended yarns, you can achieve the desired knit tension, ensuring the pattern turns out beautifully every time. It's an ideal choice for all seasons, allowing your little one to stay comfortable in any climate.
The required knit tension for this pattern is 22 stitches by 28 rows, measured over a 10cm x 10cm (4'' x 4'') square in stocking/stockinette stitch using 4mm (US6) needles. This precise tension is crucial for the best results, so be sure to check your gauge before starting. Additionally, this pattern requires the ability to work from written instructions for the intricate front lace panel, as chart instructions are not provided for this lace design.
Whether you are an experienced knitter or just beginning to explore the art of knitting, this lace panel sweater pattern is a delightful project that brings joy and style to your knitting journey. Get started today and create a beautiful, handmade wardrobe staple that your baby will love!
