Beyond Puerperium

Beyond Puerperium is a very simply styled cardigan, with a focal buttonband running along the raglan shaping line. The pattern is top down seamless in construction, and offers a wonderful blank canvas should one decide to embellish. Beyond Puerperium is the comprehensive version of the free [Puerperium Cardigan][1] pattern. It is a **PEKAPEKA Multi Pattern**, which means it is written for: **3 yarn weights** (4ply/fingering weight, 8ply/dk weight, and 10ply/light worsted weight), and each yarn weight is written for **7 sizes** from birth (37.5cm chest) to 2years (52.5cm) *That is essentially 3 patterns in one document!* The pattern has instructions for straight knit sleeves, plus tailored tapered sleeves. There are regular stitch counts throughout the pattern to help guide you along the way. ----------------------------- 4ply/fingering weight version: Gauge - 28sts/10cm on 3.25mm needles Yarn quantities required - newborn 70g ~ 0-3m 80g ~ 3-6m 90g ~ 6-12m 100g ~ 12-18m 110g ~ 18-24m 120g ~ 2y 130g 8ply/dk weight version: Gauge - 22sts/10cm on 4.00mm needles Yarn quantites required - newborn 90g ~ 0-3m 110g ~ 3-6m 120g ~ 6-12m 140g ~ 12-18m 160g ~ 18-24m 180g ~ 2y 200g 10ply/light worsted weight version: Gauge - 20sts/10cm on 4.50mm needles Yarn quantities required - newborn 100g ~ 0-3m 120g ~ 3-6m 130g ~ 6-12m 150g ~ 12-18m 170g ~ 18-24m 190g ~ 2y 210g [1]: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/puerperium-cardigan
