This LAMB yarn version of our Boyfriend Sweater is designed to be reversible and can be worn with either the knit or the purl side showing.
The sweater is worked in the round from the top down starting with a double knit neckband. The neckline is shaped using short rows. Faux seam stitches with raglan increases on either side accentuate the raglan shaping. Faux seam stitches also highlight the side ‘seams’ of the body and the underside of the sleeves.
