Spin Raglan
This sweater sums up my ideal raglan pullover: worked from the top down, completely seamless, and just a little bit of texture to make it fit into a more modern wardrobe! Adjust the length of the sleeves and the body easily to fit your personal style! This sweater flies off the needles thanks to heavy worsted weight yarn.
Sizes: 1 (2, 3, 4, 5)(6, 7, 8, 9)(10, 11, 12, 13)
Finished Bust Measurements:

Recommended ease is -2 to +2”/-5 to +5 cm; sample is shown in Size 3 on a 34”/86.5 cm bust with 0”/0 cm of positive ease.
Testers found that the fit with anywhere from negative 2” ease to postive 2 inches ease worked well!
