Knitted in the round from the top down, Jennifer Hagan’s Shredder Pullover has no seams to sew: The underarm stitches are picked up and knitted as the sleeves are begun. One asymmetrical ribbed cable along the raglan sleeve line adds just a little quirky interest—and makes the entire garment completely reversible.
