Light & Lacy Raglan Sweater

Introducing our beautiful 4 ply raglan sweater knitting pattern, featuring a stunning central panel that adorns the back, front, and sleeves, while the remainder of the sweater is crafted in cozy stocking stitch. The eye-catching pattern panel is comprised of easy eyelet "v" shapes, separated by delightful 3-stitch twists—no cable needles required! For those who prefer a simpler approach, you can easily omit the panel on the back and knit the entire piece in stocking stitch, making it perfect for relaxing evenings in front of the television.

This sweater is designed to be made with a high-quality wool 4 ply yarn, like King Cole Merino Blend 4 Ply Superwash Wool, which provides both warmth and softness. However, this versatile pattern also works wonderfully with synthetic or cotton yarns, allowing you to customize the feel and drape of your finished garment. The design is worked from the bottom up and includes comprehensive, full written instructions to guide you every step of the way.
