Coastal Raglan
I designed this raglan tee to wear in our low country Spring, Summer, and Fall – although no sweater can be worn on our hottest days! This is a very easy sweater to knit. It is also very easy to alter the length of the sleeves or body. As written, this beginner-friendly sweater is knit top down, and features a slightly squared neckline, raglan increases, optional stripes, and short sleeves.
Enjoy!
