..THE traditional classic in the tiniest format..
For this
easy-to-knit baby traditional-style jacket, we need approx. 100 g, e.g. Zimba Top by Schoeller+Stahl in classic traditional gray + 50 g (or leftover yarn) Regia 4-ply for the edging, knitted in traditional green, knitting needle size 3.0, and, if needed, a crochet hook size 3 - 3.5 for the decorative foundation chain on the front band.
The
PDF pattern contains 15 pictures.
Also included in the download as a bonus is the simple version of my
Excel table for quickly converting your gauge to your desired size (usable for all knitted/crocheted pieces, calculation program required, e.g. Excel or LibreOffice; the latter is available free online).
Basic knitting skills are required (i.e. these are not illustrated).
Required knitting skills: long-tail cast-on, knit stitches, bind off, increase stitches (from the strand between stitches), yarn over (for the buttonholes), knit 2 stitches together.
By the way: This jacket can also be knitted without sleeves (then crochet around the armholes in green once with single crochet)
as a vest.
