Product Details
Don't you love zippers for kids' clothes? Easy on and off, no worrying about buttons that can pop off and find their way into a toddler's mouth. And they're easy to insert--honest! I did it for the first time when I knit the prototype for this pattern, now available for sizes 6 months to 6 years.
Above is a photo of the sleeve detail, "Mirror Cable" from Barbara Walker's Charted Knitting Designs. The same accent cable encircles the sweater at the waist, as well as running vertically up the back. The pattern includes instructions for crossing the traveling stitches in "Mirror Cable" (and for working the baby cables) without using a cable needle.
Although this sweater has a sporty apres-ski look, it also makes a perfect spring or fall outer layer; I used merino wool, but a cotton-wool light worsted-weight blend such as Brown Sheep's Cotton Fleece would also work beautifully (just be sure to check gauge on a blocked swatch). The photo at left shows the back view.
