This is a exceptionally beautiful Appalachian Baby sweater that uses a tuck stitch. The pattern was developed for a 9mm bulky knitting machine with a 24 stitch repeat with the #4 punch card. It was based on using a sport weight organic cotton yarn that yielded 900 yards per lb., a yarn that you can order from us. The pattern is graded for a 12 month, 18 month or 24 month size.
