This simple raglan cardigan features a deep v-neck and is worked seamlessly from the top down. Its light shaping and button-free design makes it as easy to wear as it is to knit. Though this sweater is not designed to close in front, the natural stretch of the ribbed fabric permits the use of your favorite shawl pin to close the cardigan slightly above the waist. Wear it open for a layer of extra warmth around your shoulders. You’ll want one in every color!

Sweater is worked in 3x3 rib throughout. Ribbing is very elastic and stretches up to 40% depending on how aggressively the fabric is blocked.
