I wanted a quick to knit summer tunic type sweater that would look great in a summer yarn, and that would be great to wear over a pair of jeans or leggings. It is easy to short or to lengthen this sweater because it is knit from the top down.

It features raglan sleeves and a modified v-neck. The pocket is knit into the pullover, no seaming involved. The sides at the bottom are left open, with a 4” slit. The ribbing is worked in such a manner that does not pull together at the bottom, thus finishing off a slimming tunic look.
