 Argentine

    by Anne Kuo Lukito

                          

 

 

 

 

       

When kids grow, they sometimes only seem to get longer with extra long limbs during their grown spurts. Argentine is a coat that your child can grow into. The contrasting color cuffs are designed to be folded up, but when your kid suddenly develops monkey arms, the reversible cuffs can be folded down to add length. A 4"/ 10cm ease also allows your kid plenty of room to play and grow.

The coat is worked from the top-down in a raglan construction. The edges are hemmed to give it a clean finish and the contrasting cuffs and collar lend an extra pop of color.

Argentine is currently available for purchase via Knitcircus
