Best Buddy is a perfectly handsome, easy to knit raglan sweater, worked from the top down, without seams.
The wide raglan bands feature a double rib pattern, to add a bit of texture to the otherwise smooth knit. The result is a modern, clean pullover, that looks great in any DK yarn.
Features a back button closure, as many children don’t like tight necklines.
