This is an easy cabled baby/toddler raglan sweater to dress up your little one. The cables resemble bubbles from the all-time favorite bubble blowing toys. It is suitable both for little boys or girls and would make a lovely edition to any fashionable look. The slightly retro look of the cables is combined with a touch of modern rib at the hems and neck, flowing into the main pattern. The raglan construction provides for more comfortable wear.

The piece is knitted in the round, bottom up to the armholes. The sleeves are worked separately, in the round and feature the same base design as the body. At the yoke these are joined to the body, forming a decorative raglan line up to the neck.

The cables are both charted and with written instructions, easy to work and remember and the simple construction makes the knit extremely suitable for beginners. The pattern is intended for sport yarn.

For more experienced knitters the pattern is easily adaptable to any required size by adding or substracting cable repeats.
