This pattern is for a top-down V-neck short sleeve raglan pullover sweater knit seamlessly wtin Zooey Stripes yarn in a Chevron Pattern, beginning with back neck, joined in front, and then increasing to chest size. Sleeve stitches are placed on hold, and knitting continued down to hem. Directions are given for a pullover in Sport weight yarn with short sleeves, in a linen/cotton blend summer yarn.

Of course, you can use any yarn which knits to the suggested gauge; Noro Sonata Shima or other self-striping sport-weight yarn would be entertaining to knit and comfortable to wear in summer. Or even scraps of yarn for a striped effect.
I’ve included instructions for a-line shaping, but those are optional.
8 sizes are included. Pattern is fully charted.

Pattern has been professionally tech edited by Sue Hislop (Sue-cat on Ravelry).
