Ankers Junior Sweater

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

The Ankers Sweater for Juniors is knitted in the round from the top down. The yoke consists of ribbed sections with increases, followed by classic raglan increases. The sleeves are knitted at the end on double-pointed needles or using the magic loop method. Choose the size that best suits the child’s chest measurement. You can easily adjust the length of the sweater by knitting the sleeves and body longer or shorter. To ensure a snug fit around the neck, a thin elastic thread can be sewn along the neckline.
