Second in my basic raglan series, Raglan… With Alpaca is a simple all-over stockinette project. Worked from the top-down, the knitter can choose between a crew neck or a turtleneck, as well as between long or short sleeves.
In a departure with its sibling (Raglan… With a Twist), Raglan… With Alpaca has no ease and a thinner fabric, making it a perfect transitional garment.
