The Little Mariner

This baby sweater is inspired by the traditional sweaters worn by fishermen but uses basic crochet stitches which makes it accessible to most levels of crocheters. It has a lovely textured finish and looks great in a range of colour ways.

This design has a wide neck making it easy to get over baby’s head and a cuff which turns back easily to accommodate different arm lengths.

The design is top down, in raglan style, so there is no sewing together needed. The body is worked in one piece and the arms are then crocheted.

The pattern uses Woolcraft DK in cream but my testers used a range of DK yarns successfully so it’s very flexible.
