The Saffron Sweater is a top down raglan sweater for kids with a simple, wearable design and a pretty flower lace detail on the sleeves.

It’s worked seamlessly from the top down, making it easy to adjust length as you go. The stockinette body keeps things relaxing, while the sleeves feature a delicate six-petal lace pattern inspired by saffron flowers. The result is a sweater that feels special without being complicated.

This pattern is a great option if you enjoy classic raglan construction but want something with a little extra detail.
