Cloud Busting is a top down, seamless raglan sweater with a boxy relaxed fit which has been designed to be worn with a good deal of positive ease. The interest comes from the colour blocking aspect of the sweater and the contrast between a tweed and neutral Aran yarn separated by a band of off-white seed stitch (moss stitch).

Short rows are incorporated within the neck ribbing to create a higher back. Raglan shaping is worked in the round to sleeve separation, a seed stitch band is then worked before the remaining body is then knitted top down to the hem. The sleeves are then worked top down to the cuffs.
