Seaside Sweater JUNIOR Pattern

This pattern is in English, paper version.

The Seaside Sweater Junior is worked from the top down with raglan increases. The first part of the yoke is worked back and forth on circular needles, while the button placket is being created along the left front raglan line. After the button placket has been completed, the work is joined to continue knitting in the round on the circular needles. The Seaside Sweater Junior has stripes and is worked with two strands of the recommended yarn held together throughout.
