Pattern Description from Vogue Knitting, Fall 2007: “It’s a cinch to see the appeal of Gayle Bunn’s raglan-shaped A-line pullover, shown in merino/silk ‘Venezia’ from Cascade Yarns. Twists at the yoke descend into a diamond-cable pattern, all set against reverse-stockinette stitching that extends up to the funnel neck.”

“Standard-fitting flare shaped tunic with circular raglan yoke and stand-up reverse stockinette collar.”
