Apples n’ Hearts is a children’s raglan sweater and headband set featuring a charming apple-and-heart colorwork motif. Knitted in soft merino wool, it’s warm, comfortable, and perfect for everyday wear as well as cozy occasions.

The body circumference of the sweater ranges from 60 - 85 cm.

The pattern is written in English and uses the metric system (grams, centimeters, etc.).

Yarn and yardage:
Double Sunday by Sandnes Garn (100% merino wool)
MC 1: 4213 Blossom 250, (250g), 300, (300), 350 grams
CC: 4219 Dark red 50, (50), 50, (100), 100 grams

While designed with merino yarn, it can easily be substituted with other yarn, as long as the final gauge is consistent.

Inside the pattern, you’ll find a detailed size chart, schematics, helpful tips, instructional videos and drawings, and clear step-by-step directions—everything you need to create your own Apples n’ Hearts sweater :)
