About this pattern:

This is the perfect fall cabin vibe sweater! This pattern is a raglan construction with a positive ease of around 7 inches (17.78 cm) After completing the double collar, you will set up the raglan sts and work flat to make the short rows around the back of the neck. After the short rows are completed, you will start knitting in the round to form the body and sleeves of your sweater. Once the yoke is complete, you will separate the sleeves and body. You will proceed to knit the body and then the colorwork charts. After you finish the ribbing and cast off the body, you will then work the sleeves.
