This pattern is in english.
The Louisiana Sweater Junior is worked from the top down with raglan increases on the yoke. The ribbing at the neck edge is folded and knitted together to form the neckline. The sleeves have tight fitting ribbed cuffs. I recommend using the Italian bind-off method on cuffs and hem for a neat, elastic edge.
Before you start knitting the sweater, begin by knitting a swatch to determine which needle size will give you the correct gauge.
Size guide
The Louisiana Sweater Junior is designed to have approx. 18 cm [7 inches] of positive ease. The sizes 2-4 (4-6) 6-8 (8-10) 10-12 (12-14) years are designed to fit a chest circumference of approx. 55 (58) 63 (71) 77 (82) cm [21¾ (22¾) 24¾ (28) 30¼ (32¼) inches]. The measurements for the finished garment are listed on the front page of the pattern (please note that these measurements are only achieved if the sweater is knitted in the correct gauge). If the recipient measures 58 cm [22¾ inches] around the chest, you should knit a size 4-6 years. Size 4-6 years has a chest circumference of 76 cm [30 inches] which will, in this example, give 18 cm [7 inches] of positive ease. If the measured chest circumference deviates from the age guide, you can adjust the lengths to the person you’re knitting for. The same applies if the child is short/taller than average.
