***DOWNLOADABLE KNITTING PATTERN ONLY***

A raglan sweater with decorative shoulder and side seams

This raglan yoke sweater is knit with the listed yarn held double from the top down and flat for the beginning of the collar, then joined and knit in the round. You first work the yoke, which includes a front and a back body panel and the beginning of two sleeve panels. When your yoke is long enough to reach your armpits, you separate the sleeve panels from the body panels, holding the sleeve stitches on scrap yarn and joining the body panels to finish the body of the sweater down to the waist.

The pattern includes optional bust darts, including suggested spacing for each size. The purchased pattern includes a description to customize bust darts based on your own measurements. Note: the sweater in the modeled picture does not feature bust darts. You end by working each sleeve individually then picking up and knitting for the collar ribbing.

The pattern includes a video tutorial for the shoulder seam stitch.
