DESCRIPTION
Ready for your first top down raglan? Top down sweaters are perfect for any knitter wanting to make their first garment, and I am certain you will crush this pattern! Classic garter and the cutest eyelet increase details, the Beginner Raglan LITE is sure to become a staple in your wardrobe. Knit like the original My Beginner Raglan, this pattern has now been adapted for a worsted weight yarn, making it perfect for a lighter weight sweater with the same gorgeous style and skill level. This sweater has 0.5-2.5" of negative ease built in. For choosing your size, take a peek at page 5 & 6. Knit top down, in the round, and seamlessly, this pattern is written in 9 sizes – XS (S, M, L, XL) (2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL).

How to choose your size: Find your bust measurements below. Positive ease is built into the pattern, meaning final measurements are 0.5-2.5” subtracted from that number.

Knit in the round, seamless.
