Cocoon is worked top-down with a short, wide neckline and raglan increases forming a delicate “pearl line” along the yoke. The fit is light and relaxed with a subtle cocoon shape on the body and sleeves. The eye-catching pattern works beautifully in many color combinations and is perfect for using leftover yarn. Sweet two-color rib edges are finished with a tiny rolled edge.
