Who doesn’t love a simple turtle neck raglan for the winter! That is exactly why I designed the Rosemary raglan! She is lovely and warm, and slightly oversized so she is nice and comfy for winter. Knitted using a wool acrylic blend, this aran jumper knits up super quick so it is a satisfying knit! There is a positive ease of 6-8 inches, so make sure you size up or down accordingly. The raglan is knitted top down in the round, you knit the turtle neck, then the yoke with raglan increases and then the body and sleeves. The pattern uses 5.5mm needles throughout for simplicity! A shorter cable (40cm) will be useful for the sleeves and neck, and then a larger cable for the body. Alternatively you could use a large cable throughout and use the magic loop method.

I hope you love your Rosemary Raglan as much as I love mine!
