Pattern Notes

This is a basic, classic raglan pullover that can be knit in any sport weight yarn. It is written for 2-row stripes, but it could easily be made in one colour or a different stripe pattern.

It is knit from the top down, in one piece. You begin at the neck, and knit the top of the yoke back and forth (flat) while neckline shaping takes place. Then the remainder of the yoke, body, and sleeves are worked in the round. Stitches for the neck ribbing are picked up and knit at the end.

Fit

This design is intended to be relaxed and worn with about 4-7 (10 - 18 cm) inches of ease, but you can choose any ease you like!

The pattern includes a schematic diagram with detailed measurements for the finished sizes.

For sizes XL – 6X, the pattern has some extra width in the front relative to the back. This is mainly to fit larger bust/cup sizes, where the full bust (=circumference of largest part of body, including bust) measures significantly more than the upper chest (=circumference of body at underarms, above the bust).

Since this design is striped, it may not be desirable to add short rows to accommodate this, and therefore extra front width is provided instead.

If the extra amount included is not suitable however, the pattern also includes a method for reducing, eliminating, or increasing the difference between the front and back.
