This beautiful square-necked raglan has a flirty, fitted body and long sleeves. Knitted top-down, with no short rows and no seaming, this sweater is perfect for an advanced beginner. Lots of tips for customizing the sweater to fit your unique body are included (including instructions for raising the neckline, if desired.)

Finished Bust Measurement: 30 (32, 34, 36, 38, 40) {42, 44, 46, 48, 50} (52, 54, 56, 58, 60) inches / 77 (81, 86, 91, 97, 102) {106, 112, 117, 122, 126} (132, 137, 144, 147, 152) cm

This sweater is designed to be worn with 0-2” (0-5 cm) of negative ease. Choose a size up to 2” (5 cm) smaller than your actual bust measurement.

Samples shown in size 36 with 0” (0 cm) negative ease knitted in Malabrigo Worsted in the color Simple Taupe; size 34 with 0” (0 cm) negative ease knitted in Malabrigo Rios in the color Syrah Gapes (my preference for the best fit of this sweater is to have some negative ease)
