If you’ve never crocheted a raglan sweater or top before, you are in for a treat. This might just be my favorite way to crochet sweaters or tops! The fact is that the technique has many advantages:

when you crochet the from top-down, you will get a whole thing, it means without seams
save valuable time without spending it on long and annoying stitching
raglan allows you to try on the sweater at any time and adjust its size in the process of crocheting
sweater sits perfectly on the shoulders, not forming folds in the armpit area
the perfect technique for crocheting children’s clothes, because the sweater is easy to fit on the growth child, periodically unravel and extending its sleeves
