Runa Sweater Kids

Runa Sweater Kids is a raglan sweater for children, worked top down in stockinette stitch with a seamless construction. The sweater is first worked back and forth to create a raised back neck and a slipooth neckline. The work is then joined and worked in the rnd with raglan increases. The neckline is finished with an i-cord edging and a wide neckband in double rib, while the sleeves are finished with wide cuffs in double rib.

Runa Sweater Kids is worked in a rustic tweed yarn that only gets better with wear. The yarn gives the sweater a slightly rustic look, while the simple construction creates a modern and timeless garment.
