Basic raglan jumper, ideal for beginners: the pattern describes each step in detail. Knitted top-down in Poppy (version 5A) or bottom-up in Kos (version 5B); each pattern includes both yarn options. 4.5 mm needles – tension: 18 stitches = 10 cm.
Version 5A: begin with the back neck, worked back and forth and then in the round, with raglan increases; the work is then divided for the sleeves, back and front. Version 5B: the body is worked in the round from the hem up to the underarms and the sleeves separately, then everything is joined for the raglan decreases. In both versions, the ribbed neckband is folded double to the wrong side. The body and sleeve lengths can be adjusted as you wish.
The amount of yarn is based on the measurements shown. Allow extra yarn for a longer garment.
