Storm Sweater Baby | Petiteknit

The Storm Sweater Baby is knitted from the top down using a structured knit. First, the back is knitted back and forth. Then, stitches are picked up for the shoulders, which are then joined at the front to continue knitting the front piece. The front piece and back piece are then joined under the armhole and continued in the body, which is knitted straight down. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double pointed needles or with the Magic Loop technique. Finally, a rib edge is knitted at the neck, which is folded double and knitted down. The Storm Sweater Baby is knitted using a structured knit that consists of four different pattern segments.

Make a swatch before you start knitting to measure the knitting tension – note that the knitting tension in both the height and width should be correct, so that the measurements given on the front are correct. You can make a swatch according to the diagram in the knitting pattern.
