The Elwyn Pullover has dramatic raglan sleeves that are set off from the body with a seeded rib stitch. A narrow band of ribbing finishes the three-quarter length sleeves. The body has an easy, straight fit and sits at the high hip. Short rows worked in the neck ribbing raise the back of the neck for a smoother fit.

The sweater is designed to be worn with 1-4” of positive ease, so it fits a wide range of sizes. Choose a size that reflects your chest measurement plus the amount of ease you want. The sample shown is a size S with about 1” of ease.

The finished chest measurements are:
36 (38.75, 41.25, 45.75) (48.25, 51, 53.25, 56)“.
