Devonia Cream
This DK weight jumper is suitable for all occasions and easily adaptable for each season, waist length, or down to the hip. Short sleeves, long sleeves, you choose. The stitch pattern looks far more complicated than it is, whilst cables follow all seams of the raglan. Knit from bottom up in pieces and seamed at the end, adding i-Cord bind offs to the neckline creates a smart finish, you can add one to the other trims too. Wear your Devonia Cream with jeans, high-waisted skirts or over smart dresses. Wear the short version with positive ease for a casual slouchy fit. Or wear the long version with less ease.
Using a DK yarn and 3.75mm needles creates a dense and wearable fabric.
