Have You Done a "Baby, It's Cold Outside" Sweater?

[KnicKnac]

If so, could you please spend a few minutes to fill out this form? We (mostly lilybean31905 - she is compiling) are trying to accumulate a chart letting people know what size creates what size sweater.

 

Thank you so much for your input.

 

If you have any problems with the form, please feel free to PM me! Also, if you think there would be other useful information, please let me know!

I posted the info for the child's size three but I noticed that the form does not ask for starting chains - or does it and I didn't realize it?

Have to run for a bit - will check back

I think that would go under the 'did you change the pattern/make any modifications' part, Darski.

 

I am on my fifth, yes fifth BICO. And I still haven't made any modifications yet. I want to make a size four pullover though.

Thank you - I just gave general information for that part...ah well will try again

 

I have also been thinking of trying that size 4 - I know a little one who might just fit that size.

 

I have promised myself that any more BICO's would be for little ones at the pregnancy centre though. Decisions, decisions, decisions

Hi! Did the chart get finished? I'd love to do a larger size but don't know how to adjust. I have an almost 4 year old that I would love to make one for. Please help!!! Thanks sew much!

I have made 2 and the only thing I did was reverse the instuctions so that the sweater for the baby boy closed left over right.

You can use any yarn you want pretty much... I made my first one in RH pounder with only one strand. If you check out the CAL for this, most of the information is there.

but i just followed the regular directions for the size i wanted. i would love to see someone write out an adult size pattern. i know there's some information there, but i'm not that good at interpreting it. a pullover version would be great!. thanks to all who are working on this.

Just filled out the form for the preemie BICO I made, you can see it here

Used Caron Simply Soft, G Hook, the bigger of the 2 directions, and it fit a 5 week early baby perfectly. I do crochet tightly.

I'm sorry but it was just too long ago for me to remember how I did my 2 adult versions. I really just made every thing larger and longer since I knew the pattern so well.

 

 

EDIT to add:

here is the post where I gave the specific information for a 3X to start...

The instructions remain the same. get the meaurement you need at the bust.chest and add at least 4 inches of ease. divide that in half and make a chain that long. everything after that is just playing the numbers.
