One-Armed Baby Cardigan


Or perhaps, more accurately, single-sleeved cardigan for baby. Wouldn't want to confuse.

The thing I don't like about cardigans is the planning of the button placement and the corresponding buttonholes. How many buttons does it need, and how far apart?

I solved the problem a little bit differently this time. I worked an eyelet edging around the bottom, the cuff of the sleeve, the collar and most importantly, along the fronts. As a result, there are buttonholes wherever you need them...

The garment is proving very hard to photograph, but as soon as I can get the eyelet to show up in a photo, I'll post that. In the meantime, if you click to enlarge the photo you can sort of see it...
