A lovely stretchy Garter stitch jacket with hood, raglan sleeves make it easy to put on and take off a small baby
Normally I would use 4mm needles with this yarn but I like the effect obtained by using the 3.5mm, a slight thicker finish, making it more like an outdoor jacket rather than a cardigan.
You could use the larger needle to increase the size.
I used one 100g ball on Paintbox Simply DK and bought 8 10g balls of the same wool, using less than fifty percent of each.
Of course you can just knit it in one colour
