No Frills Sweater Junior

This knitting pattern is in English.

No Frills Sweater Junior is a simple raglan sweater with a slight lower neck opening in the front. The fit is a little oversized but a wide rib on the sleeves and around the waist gives it a feminine look. The simple design of the sweater allows you to experiment with color. It is worked holding the two suggested yarns together for extra warmth and color mixing. No Frills Sweater Junior is worked seamlessly top-down and can therefore easily be tried on as you go.
