Geo Waves is a top down raglan pullover knitted in a chunky weight, it has colourwork on the body which is knitted straight down, and on the sleeves which are shaped with decreases. This sweater is perfect for those chilly fall and winter days when you need to stay warm and cosy. The raglan style gives it a classic look while the geometric colourwork adds a modern twist. The pattern has short rows to raise the back and provide a better, more comfortable fit. The chunky weight yarn used in this pattern makes it a quick knit, perfect for last-minute gift-giving or simply treating yourself to a new wardrobe staple. The colourwork uses 2 contrast colours but you’re only using 2 or 1 colour at a time with no floats to catch which makes it perfect for beginners
