Chutes and Ladders is one of the first and easiest games my kids learned to play, and inspired the pattern of this sweater. The purl/stockinette ladders are along the front, and the purled chutes go along the side of the sweater.

Made out of thick and squishy worsted yarn, this raglan sweater knits up quickly and easily. The design includes cuffed sleeves and slip-stitch detail along the raglan increases, and is meant to be slightly oversized in fit. It makes a great, warm sweater for any child and has sizes for children aged 2-10.

This pattern is Easy-Intermediate in difficulty. Intermediate techniques and stitches used include: back-loop cast on, m1L, m1R, k2tog, ssk, and slipping a stitch. All techniques are explained in the pattern, except for picking up stitches.
