Simple Childs Raglan 8 Ply Round Neck Jumper Pattern
Are you looking a pattern for a simple childs raglan 8 ply jumper?
Although slightly more difficult than the dropped shoulder jumper pattern, this pattern is rated as an easy knit as it has only a little shaping and is knitted in stocking stitch.
The jumper consists of four pieces, the back and the front, and two sleeves.
The style of the jumper is a raglan, which basically means that the top of the front, back and sleeves are shaped in a diagonal from the beginning of the armhole to the neck.
This style of jumper tends to offer a better fit than either the dropped shoulder or inset sleeve styles, and raglan shaping is easier to do that it appears.
The jumper in the picture is a size four and was knitted using Carnival 8 ply pure wool.
