This an easy to do process and makes it much simpler to crochet sleeves onto the garment.

The worked from the top down round and square yokes are a quick and ideal way to crochet in one piece instead of having the sewing up etc to do in the finishing off.

Use when making baby jackets, cardigans or dresses.

Hope this how to pictorial helps with your crochet baby projects.
