Linen Seed Raglan is a DK weight raglan style sweater, adorned with a linen stitch detailing along the front raglan lines, as well as on the sleeves. This sweater is designed for a cropped or standard length. The Cropped length is perfect for layering over a dress / tunic or paired with a high-waisted skirt – the Standard length is perfect for a casual look, paired with your favorite go-to jeans. Linen Seed Raglan is top-down construction, knit seamlessly from the collar to split-hem and includes full length sleeves with an extra-long cuff.

This pattern is designed to be worked in either fingering weight yarn, held double throughout, or with DK weight yarn (held single). Suggested yardage amounts are provided for both options.
