A classic jumper

This is for my grandson Alexander who is 18 months old. A classic raglan sleeve design with a button opening in the back,  I've revamped it with some contrast colour in the sleeves and a couple of fancy stitches. Added a little touch of knitting stitch embroidery (often called duplicate stitch), on the grey sections on the sleeve. The embroidery is a great way to add some interest to areas of stocking stitch. This is a link to You Tube to show you how to do it:
