A boho-chic top with an interesting twist, Raven is a knit pullover with pretty decorative crochet details. Its plain stockinette stitches are contrasted by the lacy edgings and a diamond motif in form of a granny square. A simple crew neck model with fitted sleeves, it is loosely knitted with 2 strands of lace weight yarn (alpaca wool + mohair) on a larger than usual needle, making it an easy and quick knit.
