Knitting Pattern in English for a Classic Sweater with a Round Neck and Colourful Bobbles in Sizes 1-2 | 2-3 | 3-4 (4-5 | 5-6 | 7-8) 9-10 | 11-12 | 13-14 yrs.

Structure:
The sweater is worked with raglan increases top down in one piece. First of all, the round neck is shaped by working back and forth in rows. You will have to work additional increases to shape the round neck. As soon as the yoke is finished and the sleeves are separated from the body, the body is finished in one piece in stockinette stitch with bobbles in the round. A hem in 1x1 ribbing finishes off the body of the sweater. Then, the sleeve stitches are picked up again and the sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch with bobbles in the round as well. Shortly before the cuffs, you will work a bunch of decreases for a balloon-like sleeve shape and tight cuffs in 1x1 ribbing. Finally, stitches along the round neck are picked up and a double folded collar in 1x1 ribbing is worked.
The sweater has a relaxed, comfortable fit due to the positive ease. The sleeves are wide and tighten at the cuffs. The highlight of the sweater is the colourful bobble pattern making the sweater fun to knit and unique to wear.
