Little boys often gravitate toward simple shapes and muted colors in their clothing choices. In this delightful design by Katya Frankel, those preferences are beautifully met. This pattern not only caters to a boy's love for straightforward styles, but it also offers an engaging knitting experience with seamless construction and charming cable details that elevate the finished piece. The chosen yarn, Debbie Bliss Blue Faced Leicester Aran, is a single-breed pure wool that is available in a palette of 16 versatile colors and is conveniently machine washable. This yarn is not only soft and comfortable for children's wear, but it also possesses the durability necessary to withstand the everyday wear and tear that active little ones require!

This sweater pattern is thoughtfully crafted in six sizes to ensure a perfect fit for varying chest circumferences: 53.5 (56, 58.5, 61, 63.5, 66) cm / 21 (22, 23, 24, 25, 26) inches. The actual chest measurements for the finished sweater are 59 (61, 63, 65.5, 67.5, 69.5) cm / 23 1/4 (24, 24 3/4, 25 3/4, 26 1/2, 27 1/2) inches, allowing for easy adjustments to suit your child's needs.

This charming sweater is designed to be worked seamlessly from the bottom up, making it a perfect project for knitters who prefer to avoid bulky seams. The body and sleeves are joined together at the underarm, followed by the construction of a stylish raglan yoke that extends gracefully toward the neck. To enhance comfort, short rows are utilized to raise the back of the neck, with clear short-row instructions provided in the pattern. Please note that the intricate cables are presented in charted form only. Enjoy creating a beautiful, practical piece that your little one will love to wear!
