This warm and comfortable raglan sweater will definitely become one of your favorite wearables. It is worked seamlessly from the top down and has the perfect amount of ease designed for easy and everyday wear. It is shown using two gradient colors, switching after a few rows throughout the sweater. You may use more colors depending on your preference, helping you put all those scraps to good use. The sweater can also be worked up in a single color, for a timeless wardrobe staple. It only uses simple and easy repeated stitches, perfect for beginners, and can also be a meditative project for more advanced crocheters.

CONSTRUCTION
This sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down, in spiral rounds. Starting at the neckline, the yoke is crocheted with raglan shaping for the sleeves. When the yoke is complete, front and back parts are joined and worked from top to bottom. The sleeves are crocheted directly onto the yoke and worked straight down to the cuff, using a nice texture for the lower sleeve part. This construction allows you to try on as you go and add or reduce length to your liking.
