Esmeralda Sweater
Esmeralda is a comfortable, basic raglan sweater featuring simple, fine garter stitch details. It focuses on perfect fit, which will make you love the sweater and want to wear it all the time – how a garment fits is vital to how much we want to use it. Esmeralda is the second in a series of raglan sweaters that I am designing to achieve perfect fit. This one is worked in our delicious Shetland wool combined with Silk Mohair, and the result is a warm, soft, and no-frills sweater that you can use with a lot of different combinations. I will use it with jeans and sneakers and topped with a nice scarf or shawl around my neck.
Make it in your favorite color to get a new favorite sweater. Esmeralda has been designed to have approx. 15-25 cm / 6-10 inches of positive ease.

Gauge
18 sts and 26 rows/rounds of stitch pattern on needle size 5 mm / US 8 = 10 x 10 cm / 4x4 inches.

Procedure
The sweater is worked top down in the round. Stitches are cast on using provisional, crochet cast-on to allow adjusting the size of the neck opening before working the neck hem. Short rows are worked over shoulders and back of the neck to make the sweater higher at the back. The yoke is worked with raglan increases. The yoke stitches are then separated into sleeves and body, which are individually finished. The sleeves are worked in the round. After trying on the sweater for size, the provisional cast-on is unraveled before the neck hem is worked.
