I've been wanting to knit this sweater since before Christmas. It is knit from the bottom up and has a lovely set of cables all around the yoke. The pattern is written for a wide range of sizes, 6 months to a 54 inch bust! I think this sweater would be great for toddler boys but older fellas may put their foot down about wearing it. I started the first of three antler cardigans in a size I think will fit my eldest granddaughter.  I had some stash yarn that worked well. My dear daughter, known in my circle of knitting friends as The Sweater Killer, and I came to terms a long time ago about yarn content, if the sweater was not to shrink, then it had to be knit in acrylic! Because of the acrylic content, I was a little worried about the yoke of this sweater, it seemed to have no shoulders! However, I used Plymouth Encore which contains some wool and everything fell into place once I blocked it. Pattern: Antler Cardigan Yarn: Plymouth Encore Colorway: Ecru Amount: 5 skeins
