Argentia

Argentia is top-down raglan pullover with A-line shaping in the body. The beautiful Fair Isle across the yoke is argyle inspired, and the cable and lace panels adorning the front and back provide a subtle focal effect to the centre of the body. It’s a top down raglan with some short row shaping before dividing for the sleeves. After dividing for sleeves, the lower body is worked in the round to the hem and the sleeves are worked in the round to the cuffs.
