The Baby Aosta Sweater by the Knit Purl Girl is a sweet top-down raglan baby sweater with an all-over textured stitch pattern and a clever button band along the yoke for easy dressing. Choose your favorite color of soft, vibrant Berroco Vintage Baby (40% superwash wool, 52% extra-fine acrylic, 8% nylon) and some fun buttons and cast on!
Baby Aosta Sweater is available in 7 sizes designed to fit children from newborn to 24 months. Use the measurements listed below to pick a size.

- Size 2 (3 months): to fit a child with a 16.25” chest circumference
- Size 3 (6 months): to fit a child with a 18” chest circumference

Each kit includes sufficient yarn for the size specified in the color of your choice, along with the pattern. We will purchase a copy of Baby Aosta Sweater for you via Ravelry, so you will automatically receive both a printed copy and an emailed PDF. If you would also like to have this pattern in your Ravelry library, please note your Ravelry ID (not your password!) in the "Notes" field in your cart!
Please note that this kit does not include needles or buttons. You will need a US6 16” circular needle and US6 DPNs (or size needed to achieve gauge). If you don't already have the appropriate needles at home, you can shop Spun's selection of circular needles here and DPNs here. The sweater is finished with three 14-15mm buttons. Our sample uses three different colors of these buttons.
If you'd like to make your kit a gift (for yourself or someone else), or if you just wish to keep your new project tidy and organized, add the Spun Rope Handle Bag with Pin to your order and we will package your purchase accordingly!
