High V-Neck Raglan (for women)
This classic **Cozy Weekend Sweater** design, originally created in 1997, has stood the test of time. The original yarn used for the garment was discontinued shortly after completion, prompting a new iteration crafted from **Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride** yarn in both worsted and bulky weight options. This luxurious and soft yarn choice perfectly complements the relaxed fit of this cozy pullover, making it ideal for chilly weekend outings or lounging at home.
