Bayside Pullover
Discover the perfect addition to your knitting wardrobe with this breezy raglan pullover pattern from the beloved book, Coastal Knits. This charming garment is expertly crafted from the top down and is designed to be worked in the round, making it a seamless project that is perfect for knitters of all skill levels. A simple yet elegant cable pattern follows the raglan lines, continuing gracefully down the sides of the sweater, adding a touch of sophistication to your handiwork. The original design is made from linen, making it an excellent choice for warmer climate wear, while those looking for a cozy option for cooler weather can easily substitute fingering weight wool.
The finished chest circumference options include sizes 32 (36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60)" / 81.5 (91.5, 101.5, 112, 122, 132, 142.5, 152.5) cm, ensuring a comfortable fit for a variety of body types.
