Fingering weight cotton makes the cutest baby cardigans and with a tab cast on, v-neck, integrated seed stitch edging, and slipped stitch colorwork you might find yourself amused along the way. I love the interplay of light and dark colors in this cardigan, but you can choose to heighten or downplay the colors.
