Flashes of colour pop in this kimono-style baby cardigan. With contrast-coloured garter stitch seams that are knitted-in rather than sewn, this sweater will be great fun to make and even more fun to wear.
The knitted seams are worked in a hybrid pick up and knit and three-needle bind-off. There’s no sewing in this project!
Skills required: increases / decreases, picking up stitches, three-needle bind-off, knowledge of sweater construction, sewing on buttons
Gauge: 22 sts and 32 rows = 4" / 10 cm in stockinette stitch in larger needles
