Yarn & Fabric Details

• The kit is knit using soft, U.S.–grown and milled organic cotton — gentle on baby’s skin and thoughtfully crafted. 

• The pattern is sized for ages 12 months, 18 months or 24 months. 

• Available in three cheerful color combinations: Spring Green/Greenbrier, Blue/Indigo, and Pink/Huckleberry Red. 

What’s Included in the Kit

• Three balls of the organic cotton yarn in the selected colorway — enough to complete any of the three sizes. 

• A printed pattern for the Rugby Baby Sweater, with instructions for top-down construction and raglan shaping. 

• Wooden buttons packaged in an organza-bag.

What’s Not Included

• Knitting needles (you will need: size US 6 [4.0 mm] 16″ circular + double-pointed needles, or size US 4 [3.5 mm] 16″ circular + double-points to obtain gauge) 

• Stitch markers, tapestry needle, waste yarn or other finishing tools — you’ll need to supply your preferred notions.

• Any additional yarn beyond what is included (the kit covers only one size)
