This is what you have been wanting to wear!
An all season, classic V-neck raglan cardigan to be worn with a small amount of positive ease. The fronts measure wider than the back, more so in the larger sizes. Worked seamlessly from the bottom up, in pieces that are joined at underarms. A self-finishing opening edge features a generous amount of buttonholes, thus closing any gaps at bust. Optional pockets!

Rated: intermediate
Skills required: knit/purl, work in rows, work in round, keep stitch pattern and row count, decreases and increases, some sewing at pockets and grafting at underarms (a few sts at neck)
Sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL
This is a close-fitting garment, choose a size with approx 2.5-7.5 cm / 1-3” of ease.
