Fir cones and needle branches adorn this raglan pullover with accompanying hat, mittens and scarf.
All pieces, except for the scarf, are knit in the round. For the raglan pullover and hat, 2x2 ribbing flows into twisted knit stitches to create cones and needles on a background of purl stitches. The mittens and scarf are knit solely in 2x2 ribbing.
