I was challenged to try the raglan again.
Here is #2
The neckline was big before washing,(as you can see in the pic) but happily it has shrunk back:whew:

KS pattern
Black interlock SewZannes
Blue is some natural organic interlock dyed cereluean blue;I bought from Marcey a long time ago.
Landon loves it and says "Wow it's soft"

Sorry about the neck issues. Landon looks pleased though.

Everyone is always talking about the neck issues. Landon seems to like it though. I think that's the first picture I've ever seen of him. That blue looks great on him!

Landon looks very happy with it! It even *looks* soft. :happy:

Looks nice and comfy!

What makes raglans more difficult with necks than the others? Is the binding applied differently? I haven't done one except for the curved raglan from Ottobre.

Suzanne, he looks very happy with it! Great job! Maybe when its washed it will shrink up some?

Don't think I have seen many pictures of Landon. :D Very nice shirt, it turned out well!

How old is your Landon? I have a 9 year old Landon. :0) heehee

Very cute! I love the colors. :)

Those are nice shirts! I made Carter a raglan shirt, and if anything, the neck was a little tight. I think it was a Burda pattern. The sizing on it was pretty good. LMK if you want me to look up the numbers. I know I saved it. It also had some cool boy pants patterns in it.

I have found that the two KS raglans I've made were way off. I have a women's that has an enormous neckline and a kids that's too small. :eyes:

That organic interlock is quite nice. Tara has also raved about it's softness. She says the more you wash it, the softer it gets.

Looks like Landon's happy with it. Glad the neck shrunk back up for you in the wash. Nice job!

That looks great Suz! He looks so content :)

Glad the neck shrank back in the wash. Love the contrast colors you choose. :)

Very nice. I love the color choices.

Looks great - I love that color combination, the black really makes the cerulean pop in an amish-quilt sort of way. Handsome guy you've got there.

Thanks, I need to do more S&S w/ Landon he is such a great happy kid. He loves his new shirt too.

My Landon just turned 10. I thought it was such a cool unique name..Well I still do just others think so too..lol
I see a few mamas on AW have Landons too. Funny how that works

Love the colors, and Landon is a cutie! I've had a couple raglan necks turn out huge too and it's so disappointing. :(

Lately I've been using JA's cotton/lycra for necklines and it seems to bounce back and not stretch out of shape like some of my other ribknits/ribbing.

Those are both so pretty, I love the colors you chose. I really want to get a kid's raglan pattern soon.

my first raglan was wayyyyyyy worse LOL haven't really done much with those since then. i am wanting to try more, now i am inspired;)

Great job. What's up with raglan patterns? Mine has the neckhole too small. GRRRR
