As of 10/15/19- I am offering this pattern for FREE. I have not had this test knitted, but I have made over 5 of these pullovers and I would like to share this pattern with everyone since it is one of my favorites. I have not tested all of the sizes so the yardage might vary from what I have listed in the pattern. I will be sure to update the pattern if there are any revisions that are needed.

The sample shown here is of a size 4. I used two full skeins of CeCe’s Yarn Baby! Superwash merino. I was not able to make the bottom hem a full 2-3/4” instead I made it 1-1/4”. So I used two full skeins to make a size 4. If you would like to make the bottom hem longer you will need another skein of yarn.

I suggest making this pullover with yarn that has a lot of drape. I have made versions of this pattern with woolen spun yarn and it didn’t have the drape that the superwash merino does.

I loved working with CeCe’s yarn. The yarn is so soft and the colors are beautiful!

I hope you enjoy this pattern and please feel free to give me any feedback. I love seeing your finished projects! Andee

SKILL LEVEL
You must be able to knit, purl, increase and decrease. Use a tubular long tail cast-on method for the right sleeve. Use the Kitchener grafting method for the left sleeve cuff. You will use the cable cast on method and backwards loop method for casting on stitches for the body. For seaming the body together you will use a mattress stitch.

DIFFICULTY LEVEL- Medium

INTRODUCTION
The Ragg Time Pullover is worked as one-piece flat on circular needles. You will begin by casting on for the right cuff. Make the right sleeve and shoulder. You will work increases for the body. You will work the front and back of the body at one time. Then you will split the front and back at the neck hole. You will work on the front of the body until the neck hole shaping is complete. Then you will work the back until the neck hole shaping is complete. Then you will rejoin the front and back stitches together and work the body until you bind off for the left sleeve. You will work the left sleeve then the left cuff and bind off. At this point you will block your garment and lay flat to dry. Then you will seam the side stitches together. Then you will work the neckline. Finally, you will work the bottom hem in a round to complete the pullover.
