Petite Knit Monday Sweater Junior - Knitting Pattern / Kit

The Monday Sweater Junior is worked from the top down with raglan increases to shape the yoke. The neck rib edge is folded and knitted together (to form a double neckband) and short rows are worked at the back of the neck to shape the neckline and raise the back. The sleeves are worked in the round on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique. The yoke, body and sleeves are worked on stockinette stitch and finished with a 1x1 rib edge.
