If you’re looking for a simple novelty Christmas knit, this is it! This jumper made in a simple raglan style features a pointed collar and stripy sleeves for an added festive detail. The jumper itself is worked flat from the bottom up, then the collar is worked separately and stitched on at the end. Techniques include knit and purl stitches, simple stripe colour work, increases and decreases and picking up stitches.
