A super unisex sweater for beginners that’s quick to knit!
Raglan sleeves and a generous fit polo neck makes this wonderfully cosy and comfy.
This Rico yarn is beautifully soft and light making it perfect to snuggle up in.

The tension used for this design is different to standard super chunky tensions, this is deliberate to give a better knitted fabric for this ribbed sweater.
