Once again we are so proud to present this original pattern by Andrea Yetman for Biscotte Yarns
''This is THE Raglan pullover I’ve been dreaming of designing and adding to my knitwear collection! I designed this Raglan to be worn with very little to no positive ease with the intention of wearing under jumpsuits and overalls. I wanted a very basic style however couldn’t help but to add faux cables to the cuffs, hem and collar for that little personal touch. The faux cabled pattern is fun to knit and easily memorized. Knit with Biscotte’s Bis-Sock yarn this is the perfect pullover to take you through the changing seasons!'' - Andrea

PATTERN NOTES: Little cables Raglan is knit seamless from top to bottom. After casting on you will work back and forth casting on additional stitches at the beginning and end of the needles on the right side rows as indicated to shape the neckline BEFORE joining to work in the round. To cast on the stitches at the beginning and end of the rows the Knitted Cast On method is recommended as it is nice and sturdy. The Raglan increases will be worked at the same time as you are casting on the additional stitches for the neckline shaping. While working back and forth, the Increase Row/Rnd is followed by a wrong side Regular Row where the stitches are purled. After joining to work in the round, the Increase Row/Rnd is followed by a Regular Round where all stitches are knit. I suggest reading through the Raglan Increases section before starting! Click to see how the collar is designed or you can pick up stitches around the neckline in your preferred method.
