MK#67 Baby Pullover
This top-down seamless baby pullover knitting pattern is perfect for creating a cozy and stylish garment for your little one. The pullover begins with a knit 1 purl 1 rib neckband, offering both comfort and a touch of classic style. After the neckband, simple short rows are incorporated to elegantly lower the front of the neckline, ensuring a comfortable fit for babies and toddlers alike. The cuffs and hem also feature the same knit 1 purl 1 rib pattern, adding consistency and charm throughout the design.
The standout feature of this pullover is the lovely grass stitch panel that runs down the front. This unique element adds visual interest while the rest of the pullover is predominantly worked in smooth and soft stocking stitch. You will also enjoy the detailing of one round with part of the grass stitch above the sleeve cuffs, beautifully framing the sleeves. This pattern is not only ideal for a little boy but also perfectly suitable for a baby girl, making it a versatile addition to any child’s wardrobe.
When it comes to sizing, this pullover accommodates a chest measurement of 49-52.5-54.5-58-62 cm (approximately 19¼-20¾-21½-23-24¼ inches), with lengths ranging from 27-29-32-34-36 cm (10¾-11½-12½-13½-14¼ inches) and sleeves measuring 15.5-16.5-19-20.5-21.5 cm (6-6½-7½-8-8½ inches). You will need a total of 232-269-309-345-398 meters (or 253-294-338-377-435 yards) of DK/8ply yarn to complete your pullover. The pictured example is made using Bendigo Woollen Mills Prism yarn in the enchanting color Fairy Tale.
To ensure a perfect fit, keep in mind that the row gauge for the grass stitch panel is slightly shorter than that for the stocking stitch portion. Therefore, we highly recommend blocking the pullover after finishing to achieve the best results and to enhance the texture of the grass stitch. For this knitting project, you will need 3.5mm (US 4) and 4mm (US 6) circular needles. With these easy-to-follow instructions and detailed guidance, you’ll create a delightful handmade gift that’s sure to be cherished!
