Thit is a classic sweater knitted in stockinette stitch from top to bottom with raglan increases. You begin by knitting back and forth to shape the neckline, simultaneously making increases at the 4 raglan markers. Once the neckline is shaped, the work is joined, and knitting continues in garter stitch down to the armholes, where the work is divided into body and sleeves. First, the body is knitted, finishing with a beautiful pattern border worked according to a chart. After that, the sleeves are knitted, finishing with a ribbed edge. Finally, a stockinette rolled edge is knitted at the neckline. The model is relatively short but can easily be lengthened; however, this will affect the yarn usage.
