Trying to find a quick and simple, top down raglan pullover pattern, was quite the task. I was unsuccessful because a lot of the patterns were not the size/gauge that I was seeking. Some patterns included picking up stitches at the neckband and you could work in the round or work short rows….. yuck! Who wants to go back and pick up stitches? Even though I do like the outcome of the short row concept at the neckline, it was just not a quick enough knit, especially since I have a full time job! I just wanted a simple pattern that would meet the requirements for the OB Ward.

At any rate, this is a simple top down, raglan pullover baby sweater pattern that I have created specifically for my sweaters that are sent to the Bundles of Joy Campaign.

Any worsted or aran weight yarn (in a Category 4) should give you the following approximate size:

Newborn:
17” Chest
6” Sleeve Length
10.5” Total Sweater Length
