This cutie pie basic raglan features an easy stripe pattern with contrasting ribbed hems. It’s worked from the top down, so length can be added easily, to make for more growing room. It also features a buttoned neckline for a roomy fit over baby’s head. This pattern is a great first sweater project. Sweet baby Cruz is wearing size 6 months.
