Like its worsted weight predecessor, Ann Arbor Sport melds bohemian elements with sporty ones. Just the thing for an afternoon at the stadium, lunch at Zingerman’s Deli, or a stroll across the Quad.

This sport weight wear-anywhere pullover is knitted in my own cushy thermal rib tuck-stitch pattern, worked in a classic raglan style, with boho rolled edges and options of either crew or T necklines.

Construction: Ann Arbor Sport is knitted in the round from the top down, beginning with a provisional cast-on at the neckline.
The stitch pattern is a variation on classic brioche, with a wide raglan panel for shaping the yoke. Sleeves and body are unshaped
and are finished with a classic rib followed by a rolled edge.
The neckline has a double-knitted baffle that adds both style and neckline stability.
