Simple, understated, effortless. A raglan is all of these things and more! Best of all for beginners, a raglan is one of the easiest sweaters to knit. It might not look that way, but the raglan is the perfect first sweater project!
Knit from the top-down in one piece (which means no seaming!), you'll be able to try on the Everyday Raglan as it's being knit up. How cool is that?
