Easy Child's Pullover - No Seams Version
This delightful child’s sweater knitting pattern features two charming styles — one adorned with a cozy rolled hem, neck, and cuffs, and the other showcasing a classic ribbed hem, neck, and cuffs. Both options are designed for comfort and durability, making them perfect for active kids who love to play. This beginner-friendly pattern allows for a seamless knitting experience, with the only seams to be sewn at the shoulders. Not only is this sweater a great basic shape, but it also offers endless customization possibilities, so you can add your own flair with fun stripes, colorful intarsia designs, or playful duplicate stitch embellishments.
