Cute raglan sleeved sweater with wide(ish) neckline, extra long sleeves and beautiful lace panel on front. The sweater is worked seamlessly from top down and requires minimal finishing.
The work begins with the neck ribbing. The neckline is then shaped with short rows. When the raglan increases are completed, sleeve stitches are placed on hold. The body is then worked in the round towards the hem. Body ribbing is worked separately for front and back, creating a slit on each side. Sleeve stitches are then placed back on the needles and the sleeves are worked in the round towards the cuffs.
The pattern includes photo tutorials for German short rows and M1b increase. The lace pattern is charted.
