The Timeless is a relaxed, oversized cardigan with a bit of colourwork at the waist. The cardigan is worked top-down with raglan sleeves and a V-neck. The raglan seams have garter stitch details to them, and all the ribbings are worker broken as well. Most of the cardigan is worked flat, but there is a steek just for the colourwork section. The body is worked straight. Please note the format of the pattern: the raglan repeats are given in a worksheet, every row and increase is not written out.
