Level of Difficulty - Beginner to Intermediate
This easy to knit garment is worked from the neck down. The rib neck is followed by a garter stitch yoke and garter basketweave stitch body. The raglan shaping of the shoulders takes place with increases on either side of what would normally be the shoulder seams. As the sleeves are worked in the round, the entire garment does not need any seams to be sewn together. The length of the sleeves and body of the garment can easily be adjusted to suit (just work less or more rows as required).
