Moby Sweater Baby | PetiteKnit Printed Knitting Pattern
Moby Sweater Baby | PetiteKnit Printed Knitting Pattern
The Moby Sweater Baby is worked from the top down in a texture and cable pattern. First the back yoke is worked and shaped using short rows to form the slope of the shoulders. After this, stitches are picked up and knitted for the shoulders, which are then joined to form the front yoke. The front and back yoke are joined to form the body, which is worked straight down in the round. The sleeves are worked in the round on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique. A rib edge is worked at the neck edge and then folded double and knitted down.
