Hit the soccer pitch, mount up for a trail ride, or load a backpack with art supplies for sketching in the park. For boys or girls on the go, a textured henley pullover makes a fuss-free outer layer that’s light and warm. An all-over pattern of double moss stitch and welts makes Wyatt as good looking as it is useful. The body and sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up and joined at the yoke with an elegant twist on the familiar raglan: sinuous decrease lines add craftsman polish.


CONSTRUCTION
Body and sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom to the underarm. The pieces are then joined, and worked in the round for several rows to the front neck opening. After binding off stitches for the henley opening, work continues back and forth in rows.
