This sweater was born from a need for a no-fuss extra layer - and quickly! Brooklyn Tweed’s Quarry is a beautifully light, bulky weight yarn, which knits up fast but doesn’t result in a heavy sweater, perfect for our active children!
Bracken is a simple top-down raglan sweater with the added detail of switching between contrasting needle sizes every row to give the reverse stockinette fabric two row furrows. The boy option is a classic fit and style, whereas the girl option adds in some A-line shaping and a dropped back hem - all without compromising the major cozy factor. A staple sweater every child’s woolly wardrobe needs! - Annie

Notes
Sweater is worked top down, completely in stockinette stitch, and inside out! This is a close fitting design so I recommend choosing a size based on chest size, and referring to the schematic. The boy style is based off the girl’s slim-fit so you might consider going up a size for a more relaxed boy fit.
To make the sweater completely reversible use the split-slice join, as suggested by Brooklyn Tweed.
