This cozy pullover in eleven sizes (XXS to L and 1X through 6X) is knit bottom up in the round with raglan shaping. The comfortable boxy shape begins with a deep, textured hem with side vents that hides a set of optional pockets and from there, the styling variations abound! Pattern includes choice of crew neck or V-neck finish, two sleeve lengths, and two body lengths. Hem texture is repeated on the lower sleeves and neckbands, with a twist stitch panel accenting side seams and raglan lines. This every day topper is a speedy, relaxing project for experienced knitters and a great choice for adventurous beginner/intermediate knitters.
