Notes

I improvised this letterman style cardigan for 6 year old. Unfortunately, it’s a bit tight on him so my 4 year old gets to have it. It’s a little big on him but the advantage of winging a sweater for the older boy is that, if it turns out too small, the younger one can grow into it.

This is a simple raglan-sleeved, v-neck cardigan with orange and light blue stripes across the middle. I love how this turned out, but next time I would allow more stitches for the front and back and fewer for the sleeves to start.
