K3073 Baby Raglan Sweater & Hat in Possum Fusion 4ply Pattern

A raglan jumper with a buttoned shoulder and a simple hat to match, in four sizes fromnewborn to eighteen months. The buttons at the shoulder mean the whole thing goes over a baby's headwithout a struggle.

It is worked flat in pieces and seamed, with a fine rib running through the middle of the frontand back that keeps the plain rows interesting.

New Zealand Possum Fusion 4ply is a blend of merino, possum and viscose. Possum fibre is hollow, so it holds warmth without weight - which is exactly what you want for something a small person has to agree to wear.

Four sizes, to fit newborn, 3 months, 6-9 months and 12-18 months (chest 36-51cm). Tension 28stitches and 36 rows to 10cm over stocking stitch on 3.25mm needles.
