A super cozy and oversized jumper for children. The sweater is knitted in SANDNES GARN Børstet Alpakka and Alpakka Ull, or alternatively in DROPS Melody & Lima. The sweater is knitted top-down with raglan sleeves, which makes the work grow naturally over the shoulders and chest, and requires minimal finishing. Sizes: 4–14 years.

JUMPER – WORK OVERVIEW:
• The jumper starts with the neckline and yoke, which are knitted in the round on a circular needle.
• You start at the center back and work top-down.
• When the yoke is finished, the work is divided into front, back, and sleeves.
• The front and back are knitted further in the round on circular needles, while the sleeves are knitted in the round on double-pointed needles or short circular needles.

This pattern is easy to follow for beginners!
