I need some help with the baby raglan sweater top down. In the directions at end of raglan increases when you bind off the seam stitches. I understand the directions but I can't get it to work out. Can anyone help? Thanks!

I think every baby be it a boy or girl needs several sweaters in their closet. This little Raglan sweater is a great sweater for the beginner to work on. Top down is a great way to start. This is a nicely written pattern.
