Level of Difficulty - Beginner
This easy to knit garment is knitted entirely in garter stitch; the 2 half fronts, back and sleeves are worked separately up to the armholes and then they are all placed on the one circular needle to be worked in one united piece. The raglan shaping of the shoulder seams takes place whilst you are knitting all the pieces together on the circular needle. This means that you eliminate the sewing of the shoulder seams, but will still need to sew the side and sleeve seams.

The length of the sleeves and body of the garment can easily be adjusted to suit (just knit less or more rows as required).
