***DOWNLOADABLE KNITTING PATTERN ONLY***

A thick-striped cardigan with a button band

This raglan sweater is worked flat with the two listed yarns held together in the listed color order, and from the top down. 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. When you finish the body, you work each sleeve individually. You finish by picking up stitches along the length of the collar and body panels to work a button band, including buttonhole placement.
