Dot Sweater Child

Dot Sweater is fun to knit in the fine dot pattern, which gives you the opportunity to put your own stamp on the look of the sweater with a multitude of possible color combinations. At the same time, the sweater is an obvious opportunity to get rid of some of your leftover yarn. The sweater is knitted from the top down with raglan pick-ups and is knitted in a single dot pattern using multi-coloured knitting, the Fair Isle technique. The sweater has a double ribbed neck and ribbed edges on the body and sleeves.
