Essential Baby Sweater

"The Essential Baby Sweater is that go-to, easy-peasy, every baby shower gift crochet pattern. It’s simple, basic, totally unisex - and super customizable! I tried to keep the stitching just as simple as possible - this baby cardigan pattern includes just chains, half double crochets, and single crochets. There aren’t even any increase or decrease stitches! This is a great baby crochet pattern for beginners - and a super quick go-to pattern for all your baby shower invites! Since the stitches of the Essential Baby Sweater are so simple, you can have a lot of fun with the colors! Adding a stripe of white and another of variegated yarn almost creates a faux fair isle look - but you can go solid, change colors every row, whatever you like! The possibilities are endless."
