Playdate Baby Cardigan

Here's an updated photo of the baby cardigan.
Twig asked if the baby cardigan pattern were knit sleeve to sleeve, so I thought here would be a better place to answer than in the comments. This darling sweater--it turned out remarkably well, don't ya think--is knit from the bottom back to the bottom front. You knit the back to the armholes, increase 5-6 times per side to get the sleeves, and then start to knit the width of the sleeves, while at the same forming the neck by binding off and then casting back on. You also split the front and add a 2nd skein of yarn to form the cardigan front. Once the sleeve depth is reached, decrease 5-6 times, then continue knitting the front with 2 skeins of yarn. The only modification I did was to the neck opening. It looked too unfinished, so I added a crochet border.
