This is a simple, top down, no fuss sweater pattern for an infant; it’s the perfect weekend knit for that stray skein or two of bulky yarn you have laying around! You have the option to knit this with rolled edges, ribbed edges, or a mix of the two. Should be appropriate for beginner knitters, and intermediate or advanced knitters will likely find this a breeze!
