Three easy pieces: three patterns to mix and match.

#3 of the e-book Three easy pieces is a simple pullover with a basic raglan sleeve inset knit at a loose gauge. It is worked top down and seamlessly in the round.
At any time you can switch between the three patterns. They all start in the same way and have the same stitch counts.
Check #1 for a short sleeved or 3/4 tapered sleeved version in gradients or with some colorwork and A-line body.
Go to #2 if you want to embellish your sweater with some steeked fents and sewn in petals (there is also a version if you don’t like to cut in your knitting).

The neck edge, hem and cuffs are started or finished with a welted cast one / bind off giving it a minimal finished look that prevents stockinette stitch from rolling.

But in this version a turtle neck, cuffs and hems in 2/2 ribbing are added. Choice between long tapered sleeves or balloon sleeves.
