Chloe

My new stripey design is now finished and available for purchase!

This is a super easy fun pattern that goes remarkably fast on the needles.

It only took me a few days to complete!

I highly recommend trying out the new Spud and Chloe yarn, but this sweater would also be a great pattern to use up partial skeins of worsted weight yarn that you might have lying around.

Like all of my previous patterns, this sweater is worked in one piece with no seaming and very minimal finishing work.

I am offering this pattern in an extended size range, from 3 months all the way up to

girls size 10!

I really enjoyed knitting it and I know that you will too!
