“Rosalina” is the child size tunic/sweater to match the adult “Montrose” and “Melrose” patterns. This “mommy and me” pattern is sport weight, with a top-down, raglan construction. It features a slip stitch pattern at the front and back of the yoke to create a texture similar to smocking. The sleeves are slightly oversized and include a petal hem for the short sleeve version. Bracelet and full-length balloon sleeves are also options. There are alternating leaf pattern options for more advanced testers at the end of pattern.
The 0-6mo to 4-6 y/o sizes are tunic length, and the 6-8 y/o and 8-10 y/o sizes are sweater length. Sample pictured is a 2-4y/o on a 1.5y/o girl.
