Rhei is a pattern I created in collaboration with Atelier fil.
https://www.fil-chofu.com

Rhei is a heavy fingering weight pullover worked seamlessly in rounds from the top down.
First, the neckband is worked and folded double. German short rows are used to shape the neckline, then raglan increases are worked to the final yoke depth. After the body and the sleeves are separated, the lower body is worked to the hem. Finally the sleeves on hold are worked down to the cuffs. The instructions include options for two body lengths.
The pattern instructions are written, and the stitch patterns are both written and charted. Please scroll down for the pattern level.
