Here is a great video from Rox who is a featured writer on Ravelry about how to make Left Twists (LT) and Right Twists (RT) when knitting. I figured this one out ages ago using books but I wish I had this video as the technique used here is way more efficient.

Garter Stitch Baby Cardigan
Another improvised baby cardigan using garter stitch.
I like the contrast of the light green and creamy white with the red buttons, reminds me of apples for some reason.
I like to crochet the finishing touches and did so here with the borders where the buttons are.
I used Cleckheaton Baby Cocoon 4 ply in green and creamy white. It is 70% merino wool and 30% nylon and is incredibly soft.

Blue Baby Cardigan
My first finished baby cardigan for my son due in May.
I used 100% baby wool by Heirloom and followed dimensions taught to me by my aunt who is an awesome knitter especially of gorgeous baby things.
This is a very quick knit. Finished it in my spare time within two days. The size is for a newborn baby which is great as in Australia May is when it starts to get cooler.
