Sirdar 5428 Squirrel Sweater in Snuggly DK & Bunny has an adorable squirrel motif on the front of this baby’s v-neck and raglan sleeve pullover. The textured pattern and the hem and cuffs look like oak leaves. The sweater is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and then seamed. Snuggly DK’s nylon and acrylic blend means your hand-knits and crocheted projects will be soft next to tender skin and easy to care for too.
