Sunday Suit

The Sunday Suit is closed with buttons down the front and it is worked from the top down. The circular yoke is worked in rib with increases, while the rest of the suit is worked in stockinette stitch. The yoke and body are worked back and forth on circular needles, while the sleeves and legs are worked in the round on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique. The Sunday Suit requires very little finishing, as the button bands (plackets) are worked along with the body, so that there is no need to pick up stitches at the end. **Sizes:** 0-1 months (1-2 months) 2-4 months (4-6 months) 6-9 months (9-12 months) 12-18 months (18-24 months) 2-3 years **Measurements:** Bust circumference suit: 43 (44) 45 (48) 50 (54) 57 (61) 64 cm \[17 (17¼) 17¾ (19) 19¾ (21¼) 22½ (24) 25¼ inches\] Length from neck to crotch: 32 (34) 35 (38) 41 (44) 48 (51) 53 cm \[12½ (13½) 13¾ (15) 16¼ (17¼) 19 (20) 21 inches\] measured mid back Total length: 44 (48) 52 (55) 60 (65) 71 (75) 79 cm \[17¼ (19) 20½ (21¾) 23½ (25½) 28 (29½) 31 inches\] measured from neck to foot. **Gauge:** 28 sts x 40 rows = 10 x 10 cm \[4 x 4 inches\] in stockinette stitch on 3 mm \[US2½\] needles **Needles:** **Circular needles:** 3 mm \[US2½\] / 40 and 60 cm \[16 and 24 inches\] **Double-pointed needles:** 3 mm \[US2½\] and 2.5 mm \[US1½\] **Materials:** 100 (100) 150 (150) 150 (200) 200 (250) 250 g Sunday by Sandnes Garn (50 g = 235 m \[257 yds\]), 8 (9) 9 (10) 11 (12) 13 (14) 14 buttons (ø 13 mm) **Difficulty:** ★ ★ ★ (3 out of 5) See the classification of difficulty [here][1].
