toddler sweater knit in the round

Cherinec5 · 12-22-2006, 02:25 PM

I"m looking for a sweater pattern for my 2 year old that will be all knit in the round. I HATE seaming to death!!!!!!! I can use dpk so i dont mind doing that for the sleeves.

I have this book (although I haven't knit from it YET) and it is full of top-down practically seamless sweaters in sizes 1 year, 2 years, 4 years, and 6 years, has pullovers, cardigans, hats, and socks. I bet you could request it from your library.

Barbara Walker of the Encyclopedia of Stitches (in 4 volumes) fame, has a book called Knitting From the Top which works from measurements. You can knit raglan sleeves, set-in sleeves, saddle shoulders or yokes, and she has instructions to change the pattern in multiple ways. It's about $20 on Amazon.

Go to the Books page and at the bottom, mixed in with pattern corrections is the link to the pattern.

Also, the Knitting pure and Simple site has a free baby/toddler sweater knit from the top down.
