Editorial Reviews

In this follow-up to 60 Quick Knits, all the designs are knit in Cascade 220 Superwash yarn, a popular, affordable, easy-care yarn with a large color palette to choose from. The garments and accessories are pretty standard as far as baby knits go—socks and booties, sweaters, and blankets make an appearance—but there are fun techniques such as intarsia, stranded color work, and mitered squares. Most of the wearables include a range of sizes from six to 12 months, with a few extended to 18 months. A trompe l'oeil tuxedo sweater illustrates how garments that would be ridiculous on adults can be sigh-inducingly cute on infants.
