**
spring hazel is an easy to knit raglan shaped sweater. it starts with a small neck band in reverse stockinette stitch. neck shaping with short rows. when short rows are done, the whole sweater will be worked in full rounds, seamlessly from top down.
the large „raglan seams“ will continue in pattern bands on both sides of the body. at the back side of both sleeves pattern bands will be done from above the elbow.
the color change starts at a very high position to give the impression of a short sleeve -T.
