This book is designed to be used as a self-guided tutorial or as a workbook for a class given at a local yarn shop. The small size of the baby sweater will let you pack the most learning into a compact project with the least amount of plain knitting. At the end of each chapter you'll have a wonderful gift to give immediately or store away for a future baby shower. Work through the sweaters in the order presented, or make the basic pattern and jump straight to the technique that you most desire. When you've completed the baby sized options, progress to a sweater for yourself. Impatient with the baby option? Feel free to jump right into an adult size. The techniques are the same, and the pattern is ready to go. Work through the sweaters in the order presented, or make the basic pattern and jump straight to the technique that you most desire.
