Diamonds And Pearls Sweater Colour Knitting Pattern (English)
Diamonds And Pearls Sweater Colour Junior is a classic model with raglan, and a diamond shaped pattern and bubbles worked in one colour while the rest of the sweater is worked in another colour using jacquard and ladderback techniques.
The sweater is worked bottom-up. The body and sleeves are worked separately before joining for the yoke, where raglan increases are worked. In order to shape the neckline short rows are worked on the last part before finishing with a double layered ribbing trim.
