Based on the Celine Pullover, this mini version is for children aged 12months to 12years.

A simple top-down knit with braid detailed cables at the raglan shoulders, and a keyhole button at the back. Designed to be a little over sized with 3-4” positive ease. The body and sleeves are written without shaping until they taper slightly in before the rib.

Designed with Mamy Factory Petite Cherie, a washable aran weight angora/merino but would work well with most aran weight yarns, particularly those with more than single ply as they make the cables pop.

Techniques include: cables, knitting in the round, lifted increases

CONSTRUCTION OVERVIEW

• The sweater is made top down back and forth until the end of the keyhole at neck, then joined in the round to the bottom of the yoke. After holding stitches for the sleeves, the body is once again worked in the round until bind off at the bottom hem

• All increases for the sweater take place in the cable pattern which is featured on the raglan shoulders

• Sleeves are worked in the round from yoke to cuff.

• The sweater is wet blocked after completion.
