A deceptively simple raglan sweater that will be well-noticed on the fairground coming and going. A cute cut-out detail at the upper back brings a little bit of attitude to this marled pullover. Knit all in one piece in a textured stitch using two yarns held together, Mulberry Street makes a great layering piece over a blouse or tee.
