The Roomy Raglan Junior is a top-down raglan sweater. The collar is knit first, followed by German short rows to shape the neckline. Raglan increases are then worked through the yoke. After the sleeves are separated, the body is knit in the round. Live sleeve stitches are picked up and worked down to a ribbed cuff.

Designed with a relaxed fit that allows room to grow, the sweater features a marled fabric accented by contrast edging. The color combinations are endless!
