Cute pullover with two wide braids in front and back worked in post stitches. I used Perlita Gigante (similar to Hayfield Baby Bonus 4 ply) and a 3.5 mm hook. You will need approximately 150 grs for a size 9 to 12 months.
If you are working braids for the first time, I would recommend using a yarn in a light color so that stitches are clearly visible. Working with dark yarns such as navy blue, dark brown or black, makes it difficult to distinguish stitches, and therefore would not be suitable for those beginning to work with post stitches..
