Cozy and elegant raglan sleeved sweater with picot neckline and lace pattern on sleeves and each side of the body. The sweater is worked seamlessly from top down and requires minimal finishing.
The work begins with the picot edging. The neckline is then shaped with short rows. When the raglan increases are completed, sleeve stitches are placed on hold. The body is then worked in the round towards the hem. Sleeve stitches are then placed back on the needles and the sleeves are worked in the round towards the cuffs.
The pattern includes photo tutorials for German short rows and M1b-increase. The lace pattern is both charted and written.
