Festive Yoke Kids Pullover
This is the kids’ version of the adult Festive Yoke Pullover. You can do the colourwork either for the yoke only or all over the body and sleeves. There are a total of 20 festive charts to mix and match: reindeer, snowmen, gifts, you name it!
The pullover is made in sport-to-fingering-weight Rauma Finull yarn and is worked top-down seamlessly in the round. Sizes range from 1/4 to 12 years.
I hope you will enjoy this pattern, and if you need any help, please do not hesitate to contact me in my Ravelry group ‘Skeindeer Knits’. It’s the best place for swift support.

Construction
This simple colourwork pullover is worked top-down, seamlessly in the round, finishing off with rib for both the sleeves and the body.
The pattern starts with a ribbed neckline worked in-the-round, and short-rows worked flat, to raise the neckline. Increases for the yoke are incorporated into the rest-rows of the colourwork chart.
Once the yoke is complete you can choose between either yoke-only colourwork or all-over colourwork.
The sleeves and body are worked seamlessly in the round, with no assembly required in the end.
