Notes

Modified to fit a 5-6 year old.
No gull pattern down the sleeves.
CO 60 sts. k2,p2 repeat to end. Continue this for 1.5”.

Next round - k2, pm, k7, pm, k2, pm, k16, pm, k2, pm, k7, pm, k2, pm, p21.(these 21 sts will be your front lace panel) If I was to knit this again I would knit the last 21 sts instead of purling them)

do raglan increases:

round 1: knit to front lace panel slipping markers as you go. do the first row in the lace chart.

round 2: k2, slip marker, m1L, k to next marker, m1R, slip marker, k2, slip marker, m1L, k to next marker, m1R, slip marker, k2, slip marker, m1L, k to next marker, m1R, slip marker, k2, slip marker, m1L, do the 2nd row of the lace chart, m1R.

repeat rounds 1 and 2 following the lace chart as you go. Every time you are on an even number on the lace chart you will also be on an even numbered round.

After … increases divide for sleeves…

Knit (following lace chart) to 1” away from desired length. Switch to K2,P2 ribbing for 1” and then cast off.


I managed to lose the rest of my notes on this :( but it was pretty simple. I think I pretty much stuck with the pattern but just with bigger needles.

Next time I would change to smaller needles for the ribbing. I forgot to!
