I knit this for my youngest child, Olive, using Noro Cashmere Island in a black colorway. I used seed stitch throughout, then sewed the front closed and attached decorative buttons. I was so pleased with how the jacket looks in seed stitch, but was a little nervous that changing the stich would mess up the gauge. But I feel it fits its little recipient perfectly!
