A super cute and practical anorak for the little ones, with buttoning all the way down.

Construction
You cast on the hood using a Turkish cast-on and knit back and forth from here, top down. After the hood, raglan increases are made before continuing separately with the body and sleeves. Short rows are worked to shape the curve at the back.
