Cropped V-Neck Raglan
About the Design
Although I love to design more complex knits, often, I prefer to wear simpler knits, especially when I am working at home.
This raglan pullover is such a wardrobe staple – it has light shaping at the waist, and is worked in the round with a steek for the v-neck shaping.
It is a good project for the knitter who is new to knitting circular sweaters, as it’s just stockinette and ribbing, so all attention can be paid to the raglan shaping, without any stitch work or color work to distract the knitter.
I used Peace Fleece for both sweaters. I LOVE Peace Fleece. It softens up a lot after washing, it hardly ever pills, even with all the wear I give them, and the mohair helps to make the fabric cozy and warm.
