Tropical Leaf Knit kids pullover Knitting Pattern

This beginner-friendly pattern helps you create a cozy, top-down baby cardigan with a tropical leaf embroidered on the front. The cardigan is worked in one piece from the neckline down, with raglan shaping and a charming asymmetrical front closure along the left raglan line. The pattern includes row-by-row written instructions, making it perfect for beginners or knitters who want step-by-step guidance. You can print it and check off each row as you go! You’ll begin with neckline shaping using short rows, continue with raglan increases, work the sleeves flat, and then finish the body.
