Crosshatch

Introducing Crosshatch – a stylish and versatile raglan pullover designed for knitters looking to create a fashionable yet comfortable garment. This pullover features a wide boat neckline and is expertly constructed from the top down, allowing for an easy and enjoyable knitting experience. The fit is slim overall with minimal ease and gentle waist shaping to enhance your silhouette. The design incorporates a 1x1 rib that elegantly frames the shaped stockinette on both the bodice and sleeves, while also trimming the neckline and hems. Additionally, these ribbed columns run lengthwise along the sides, ensuring that the overall vertical lines remain uninterrupted as you work on the shaping details on each side.

This project is not only quick and fun to knit, but it also adds a stylish touch to any wardrobe. Whether you are looking to make a cozy addition to your fall outfits or a chic layering piece for spring, the Crosshatch pullover is a fantastic choice that showcases your knitting skills.
