Nintai Mini Sweater

Just like the adult version, this design celebrates simplicity: a clean, seamless construction with a delicate texture that turns a basic garment into something truly special.

Nintai is one of those projects meant to be enjoyed slowly, perfect for reconnecting with the pleasure of crocheting.

The yarn combination you choose for your Nintai will make it unique and one of a kind.

This design also has an adult version: Nintai Sweater.

Construction:

The sweater is worked top-down, in the round, with raglan sleeves and no seams.

It begins worked flat (back and forth), similar to a cardigan, to add depth to the back neckline while raglan increases are worked at the same time.

Once the neckline shaping is complete, the fronts are joined and the work continues in the round.

After reaching the yoke width, the sleeves are placed on hold while the body and hem are worked.

Finally, the sleeves are resumed, and the cuffs and neckline are finished using the same ribbed texture.
