The Ruth Baby Ginsburg is the baby/toddler version of my Knitorious RBG sweater, but knit out of washable yarn! The design ensures that the sweater will fit for many months/years to come with the sweater becoming a crop and the extra fabric of the bubble sleeves providing additional length as the kiddo grows!

I made this piece with 2-4” positive ease so that it would fit a growing child for longer! Choose a size with the chest measurement that is about 2-4” larger than the actual chest circumference.
