Discontinued. This digital pattern is no longer available online.

This raglan jumper is worked from the top down with one strand of bouclé yarn and one strand of wool yarn held together. The design has a round 1x1 rib neck and all hems are finished with a 1x1 rib. I recommend working with reverse stockinette stitch on the outside for a nice bouclé structure.

It is only available in one size with a length of 55cm (21.5 inches) and bust circumference of 104cm (41 inches). It’s an oversized fit on sizes XS-M. This top down pattern can be easily adjusted for bigger sizes or increased or decreased in length during the process.

I used about 4 skeins of the Alpaca Bouclé and 7 skeins of Nepal but I would recommend getting one extra skein.

The jumper is mostly knitted on 8mm (US11) circular needles but for the neckline and sleeve hem ribbing I would go down one or two needle sizes. I used 5mm (US8) just because I had it already at home :)
