DETAILS
This is a simple top down in the round, seamless sweater with exaggerated details for a chic look and great fit. The faster than usual rate of increases on the raglan make for a comfy and cool boxy fit and the elongated ribbed split high/low hem helps to balance the sweaters proportions. A fun and easy knit, perfect to kick start your Fall wardrobe. Perfect for all levels of knitters, beginner to advanced.

GAUGE
19 sts & 25 rows for 4” in stockinette on US8/5.0mm needles.

FIT & SIZE
This garment is to be made with loads of positive ease; I would suggest approx. 15-25” or 38-64 cm of ease but knit what you are most comfortable wearing. This sweater is a very boxy style so meant to be ample in the bust and torso. Super Cozy!

Size 1 = 47”/120 cm, Size 2 = 60”/152 cm, Size 3 = 75”/190 cm. Sizes based on finished bust circumference.
