Designed by Robyne Conway of minimal knits | DESIGNED
This minimal knits | DESIGNED seamless baby jumper starts with a garter stitch collar and when tHat/beanie's done we do 4 short rows to elevate the back of the collar slightly. We do a little garter button placket down the centre of the front, then the rest is mostly stocking stitch. There's a very simple texture below the yoke by just working two rounds of stocking stitch followed by alternating purl 1, knit 3 rounds on every 3rd round.
Depending on our yarn and button choice, it's suitable for little boys and girls.
When the knitting is finished all we have to do is weave in the ends and sew on the buttons.
