Your pencil box is full of variety and so is this pullover raglan. It’s time to let out your inner artist and play with both color and texture. Each gradient stripe features a different stitch pattern, while the solid stripes between knit up quickly in stockinette. Each stripe is as unique as the Three Irish Girls yarn highlighted in this design. Worked top-down and in the round, this crew neck sweater features additional neck shaping for a perfect fit. The school bus is here and the weather is getting cooler… don’t forget your Pencil Box!
