Yankee Knitter Designs Pattern #32 Etta Cardigan

Etta Cardigan is a vintage-inspired top-down baby and child's cardigan knitting pattern from Yankee Knitter Designs (#32) by Melinda Goodfellow.

The yoke is knit first, with easy yarn-over raglan increases, then the sleeves, then the body. The only sewing is the sleeve seams and buttons. Worsted yarn makes it quick.
