#PREM4 Dolman Sleeved cardigan set for premature & newborns and 14-21 inch dolls

Catalog > Dolman Sleeved cardigan set for premature & newborns and 14-21 inch dolls

This set is primarily for premature and newborn babies, but perfect for dolls too. The dolman sleeved cardi is so quick and easy to knit. It has no sleeves to sew in as they are knitted in, so very few seams. The front bands are also knitted in. It is perfect for new babies as the lack of seams means it is smooth under a delicate baby, and it fits so easily over a vest or babygrow and is very easy to put on. Pattern also includes a beanie, a bonnet and slipper sock bootees.
