Please note these sweaters are designed to fit my 7 inch small rabbit pattern (and will not fit the larger 9 inch sized patterns).

There are 3 options for these top down, raglan style sweaters: a short sleeved T-shirt, a long sleeved sweater and a front opening cardigan.

The patterns are worked in 4ply/fingering weight yarn on 2.75mm (US 2) needles from the top down to the hem. They don’t use much yarn so are useful for using up small amounts that you may not have another use for.

There are 2 options for knitting the longer sleeves, either during working the body where they are knitted flat and seamed or by putting the sleeve stitches on a stitch holder and working them afterwards by knitting in the round.
