Designed by Claudia Q

As a child, I loved collecting shells and shiny things from the beach, but not many of my garments had pockets to store my treasures. This memory inspired me to add pockets to this simple design that reminds me of cute panda bears. Make it as a cardigan or a sweater!

The pullover is worked from the top down with raglan shaping. A small section of short rows is worked at the back of the neck for a more comfortable fit. Pocket linings are picked up around the pocket openings
