Knitting Pattern for a comfortable, cozy and light weight sweater with a classic, deep V neck and ribbed cuffs and hems in sizes XS | S | M (L | XL | 2XL).

Structure:
The sweater is worked with 3 strands of yarn held together in stockinette stitch with raglan increases top down in one piece. First, the yoke is worked with raglan increases along the 4 raglan lines with additional increases to shape the V neck of the sweater. Then, the sleeves are separated from the body, but the V neck stays open to continue the shaping of the V neck. Finally, the sweater is closed to the round and now the body is worked in stockinette stitch in rounds and finished with a hem in 2x2 ribbed pattern. The sleeve stitches are picked up and the sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch in rounds. When the desired length is reached, the cuffs are worked in 2x2 ribbed pattern to match the hem of the body. Finally, stitches along the V neck are picked up and a collar in 2x2 ribbed pattern is worked to finish off the design.
The fit of the sweater is comfortable with neutral to positive ease of up to 10 cm. The deep V neck – emphasized by the collar in 2x2 ribbed pattern, is the highlight of the simple design. The sleeves are designed to be a little bit too long and make the sweater extra cozy. The three strands of mohair are the ideal yarn choice for the pattern, as the garment is still super light and fluffy and therefore perfect for every day.
