Folks, it’s a one-skein, self-striping baby sweater. BAM.

Each skein begins with a rainbow of colours that will form the yoke, and then a lot of blue which you’ll use for both the body and arms. There’s also a section of green at the end of the skein, which you can add in anywhere you’d like (bottom ribbing in our sample).

We’ve based our design on Flax Light by Tin Can Knits, but you can substitute any top-down raglan pattern, either cardigan or pullover. We’ve made the 0-6 month size with a 115 g (4 oz) skein.

Available in regular and XL hanks:

  • 115 g (4 oz) = 370 m (405 yd)
  • 170 g (6 oz) = 548 m (599 yd)
