Relaxed raglan sleeved sweater with eyelet increases and a simple lace pattern on hem. 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 raglan increases are completed, sleeve stitches are placed on hold. The body is then worked in the round towards the hem. Sleeve stitches are then placed back on the needles and the sleeves are worked in the round towards the cuffs.
The pattern includes a photo tutorial for German short rows. The lace pattern is both charted and written.
