This listing is for an INSTANT DOWNLOAD of SNUGGLE BUG KIDS SWEATER PATTERN PDF, not a finished dress.

SNUGGLE BUG Kids Sweater is worked in the Raglan method (i.e., top to bottom). First the yoke is worked in rows, then after we reach the yoke depth, we Slip stitch to form the round, the button slit is on the left shoulder. The body and sleeves are worked separately in rounds. The length of the sweater and sleeves can be easily adjusted by working more rounds. The yoke part is worked in Single Crochet, for the body and sleeves we use the beautiful Lemon peel stitch. The best part of this sweater is there is no sewing of the sleeves which makes it very comfortable for kids.

The pattern is written in US terms!
