"This quick and easy baby sweater is the perfect project to crochet for the little one in your life. The only seaming is at the ribbed edges, and some testers have said they just slip stitch that part together for NO seaming! It is worked top-down from the ribbed little panels (called Saddles) at the shoulders, then joined at the underarms to be worked in the round to the hem. Then, you crochet the sleeves in. Super simple and this worked up so amazingly fast! Yarn: Red Heart Baby Hugs Medium: 1 (1, 2, 2, 3) skeins Sky (MC) and 1 skein Frosting (CC) Hook: US size L/11 (8.0 mm); US size I/9 (5.5mm) Notions: Yarn needle"
