Pattern Details

Self-patterning yarns aren't just for socks anymore - not when Holli Yeoh of Bee's Knees Knits gets through with them. Holli designs sweaters for babies and toddlers highlighting these yarns' best assets. The small sizes show off the self-patterning yarns to great effect and can be knit using the wide variety of yarns available and in your choice of colourways. Now you can knit a gorgeous sweater for your favourite child with confidence and ease.

Holli emphasizes fine finishing techniques with special attention to detail in all her patterns. Full-fashioned shaping and detailed notes provide you with all the information needed to knit a sweater with a professional look. Without doubt, these patterns really are "The Bee's Knees!"
