From Knit It! Magazine, 2005:

“Any little girl will feel grown-up in this pint-size cardigan. Knitted in two colors of cotton-blend worsted weight yarn, this adorable sweater is topped with a ‘fur’ collar. Stripes formed by a sequence of knit-purl-knit-knit rows are banded by garter-stitch borders. After joining the sweater pieces, add I-cord ties. Then wrap up the cardigan, and watch a smile break out when the happy recipient opens her gift!”
