A slightly cropped, oversized raglan jacket with a three-button closure at the neck and bell sleeves. Worked top down in one piece to underarm. Sleeve sts are placed on hold and the body is worked downward. A great pattern for the beginning top down sweater knitter; this pattern includes simple raglan shaping and easy techniques. It is worked at a large gauge on big needles making for a quick knit. Can you do it in four days?!
