Pattern says:
A sweet drop-shouldered baby pullover, with buttons on one side of the neck for no-snag dressing, get its diamond pattern from a travelling purl stitch on a stockinette background.

Knit tip: Because the sleeves are knit from shoulder to cuff, it’s a snap to add on length as baby grows.
