V for Vivi Using Big Bad Wool Weepaca
The Design
Knitting this little pullover is as easy as A, B, C. It has a perfectly simple raglan construction—top-down and seamless. But what makes V for Vivi from Big Bad Wool extra special? The option for a wee embroidered monogram! You can chart a small, personalized design in the graph provided—the pattern tells you just how to position your embroidery and even includes letter templates.
In light, worsted-weight Big Bad Wool Weepaca, this adorable sweater flies off your needles and right onto your little one. An incredibly soft half-and-half blend of fine merino and baby alpaca, this natural fiber has a traditional color palette—with a few juicy pops that provide so much room for play!
Pictured with Stay-On Baby Booties, also knit in Weepaca. We used the leftovers from monogram color to knit the booties!
