Terra Sweater is comfortable unisex design for kids. It is knitted with basic cables combined with textured horizontal stitch. The sweater design is simple and elegant. It features boxy slightly oversized shape, dropped shoulder and square neck.
Sweater is worked on straight needles back and forth. After front and back are joined together the stitches are picked up for sleeves, then the sleeves are worked top down. There are two options for the shoulder finishing in the pattern – button closure for babies and smaller kids and solid shoulder for bigger children.
I knitted two versions of Terra sweater for my son and I really love both of them.
Sweater with buttons was a perfect addition to baby wardrobe. The bigger neck opening allows extra care for little person while dressing up. This sweater is knitted with Lana Grossa Cool Wool Merino Big. This yarn is so soft and gentle for delicate baby skin.
Sweater in light grey is knitted in bigger size and it has no buttons. For this sweater I used another children friendly yarn - Rowan Baby Merino Silk DK

The buttonholes can be replaced with fastener snaps and shoulders can be decorated with buttons. It is a great option for those who doesn’t like button hole on knitted garments but still would like to make a bigger neck opening.
