Ysolda Wee Envelope PDF

Ysolda's Wee Envelope makes a great fast gift and will look adorable on any newborn! The sleeves and yoke are worked in one piece beginning at the left cuff. The yoke is divided for front and back, then rejoined to complete the right sleeve. The wide overlapping neck makes for easy dressing. The I-cord is worked as you go, to give a smooth finish to the neck opening and form integrated button loops. Stitches are picked up around the base of the completed yoke, and the body is worked downwards in the round.
