I called this up and over because you start at the back bottom edge and work
up and over to the front edge. It's all worked in one piece, sleeves and all,
purely because I hate sewing up so there's as little of that as possible. All
terms are UK. You won't use the full 100gs of wool and the finished item
should fit a 0 – 3 month old.
