Coffee Run
Time for a break? Just throw on the Coffee Run Sweater and you will look stylish and feel great when popping down to the nearby café for a snack break! This modern raglan style sweater has a relaxed and slightly cropped fit with narrow sleeves for a flattering silhouette. The key characteristics of this sweater are the twisted rib details around the raglan and underarm seams that give the garment a stylish and smart look. You’ll be able to breeze through the pattern due to the airy fabric created by using larger needles with a fairly thin yarn combo, and the Stockinette stitch is relaxing to knit while the twisted rib details keep it engaging.
