This is such an easy pattern. It will make up in no time at all. I also see it doesn't take much yarn which means it will be economical to make. So it's pretty, easy and inexpensive. That says it all, plus I love the colors because it can be for a boy or girl.

Hi. Would really like the pattern for the sweater also. Do you have it. Want to make a set for a new mom and baby boy.

Hello shellybryan 042792 1! The pattern for the sweater can be found on the designer's website: http://www.bergeredefrance.com/patterns/gender/babies/mag-176-22-sailor-style-top-1.html Please keep in mind the pattern is not free. Hope this helps! -Editors of AllFreeKnitting

There are 3 sizes given but I don't know what they represent. Please give more information on the sizes. Thanks.

The size information is found directly under the gauge information, it is difficult to see- Note Sizes are given with the following directions (0 month, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months)

More info needed on the yarn please. I tried to google it, there is a Bergere de france yarn called ideal but there just isn't enough info on here to determine if it's the same yarn called for in the pattern.

Hello Ealizabethane 1862 886! Yes, this pattern calls for Bergere de France "Ideal" Yarn in two colors - "Everest" and "Elephant." Hope this helps! -Editors of AllFreeKnitting

Love the hat and booties but would love the jumper pattern too
