This is a sweater I had anticipated making for Zora's 1st Birthday. It became clear early on this was going to be too small. Luckily a very good friend of Wilson's had a new baby sister arrive. So Elise got a welcome to the world baby sweater and a matching hat. It was nice to knit this pattern that has been around for almost 45 years. It has a very strange construction, you knit as instructed and you end up with something that resembles a plus sign. When the seaming begins you fold the sweater per instructions and presto chango a sweater immerges from the plus sign.
