The Pop Rocks sweater is a playful take on the classic raglan. Knit seamlessly from the top down, this sweater uses short rows to shape the neckline and features a double folded neckband with cozy contrasting cuffs and hem. Two strands of fingering weight yarn are held together throughout opening lots of possibilities for playing with color. In the sample I’ve held one strand of highly variegated yarn together with a cream to minimize pooling and create a nice continuity throughout.
