The Button-down Jumper

This jumper was created for my son! The colours I’ve chosen are very masculine, but with some slight colour changes this could easily be made for girls or boys. The long button and running down the chest makes this jumper super easy to get on and off, but there is also a button band in the inner thigh for quick diaper changes.
What better way to spend your 3rd trimester than knitting up some little outfits for your new baby? Or if you’re knitting it as a gift, this stylish jumper is sure to be appreciated.
