Royal Star
Special kids deserve special sweaters, and this three-color stranded pullover is perfect for all kids. The stranded colorwork pattern is limited to a deep border around the hem and above the cuffs, enhanced with contrast color sleeve cuffs and neckline. With sizes from toddler to tween, Royal Star will be a hit with lots of kids in your life! Valley Superwash DK is soft, smooth, and machine-washable, making it a hit with kids and caregivers alike, and it is a great choice for children’s garments. Royal Star is knit in the round from the bottom up with contrasting color hem and cuffs, stranded colorwork bands, and a raglan yoke worked as one piece after sleeves and body join at the underarm. Ribbed neckband is picked up and knit in the round during finishing, and the only seaming necessary for this project is closing up the underarms before it’s ready to gift. Stranded colorwork patterns are charted only.
