This sweater features top-down, raglan construction. Two colors are used to create a 2-row stripe pattern which makes the raglan shaping easy to keep track of. One skein (180 yards) of each color is sufficient to knit the two smaller sizes. A second skein of the main color may be required for the 12 mo size.

The yoke and body of the sweater are knit flat. Sleeves may be knit in the round or flat if desired. It is recommended that sleeves be knit using the magic loop technique, but double pointed needles may also be used.

Other materials include: 4 knitting markers, waste yarn to hold sleeve stitches, and removable markers for placement of buttons and buttonholes.

4- 1/2 inch buttons.
