Bessie is a crochet pattern for a vintage style baby cardigan, with options for short or three-quarter sleeves, and for fastening with one or three buttons or a tie. It's a quick, relaxing make - easily made over a few evenings or a weekend - and it uses a small amount of yarn. One skein of the recommended yarn is sufficient for two cardigans in the first size, perfect to make for newborn twins.
