Baby Kimono
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®
GAUGE:
9 sts + 13 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Stockinette st (k on RS, p on WS). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Kimono is worked in one piece starting at lower edge of Back, worked over the shoulders and ending at lower edge of Fronts.

Very easy to knit. Used a button as a closure instead of ties. The holes on the top edge of the front panels were not as obvious on the kimono that I knit as it looks in the image on the website.
