The Aster Baby Pullover is worked seamlessly from the top down, beginning with rows worked back and forth before joining to work in the round on circular needles, with classic raglan construction and raglan increases. The body and sleeves are worked together in one piece, with two buttonholes at the neckline. At the underarm, the body and sleeves are separated, and each is then worked individually in the round. The body is worked on circular needles, while the sleeves can be worked using either double-pointed needles or circular needles with the Magic Loop technique.
