A basic pullover knitted from the top down, beginning with the ribbed neckband. The front neck is slightly dipped via a few short rows. Raglan increases are worked as yarnovers on the increase round then worked as twisted stitches on the next. The sweater’s simplicity is offset by deep, double-rib borders at cuffs and hem. Lots of stockinette and strong rib texture show off the heathery, buoyant qualities of the yarn, spun from American Cheviot.
