A modern classic raglan sweater.
The lower back and front are worked in stocking stitch with a 3 stitch narrow cable which “waves” it way up into the lacy eyelet yoke.
The yoke patterning is also reflected in the sleeves.
The pretty, slightly scooped, neck is finished with a dainty picot edge giving a very femine feel.
This design is worked in a luxurious soft alpaca yarn, but will work equally well in King Cole Majestic Dk or Subtle Drifter DK.
