This is a very pretty 4 ply raglan sweater with a central panel on the back, front and sleeves with the remainder worked in stocking stitch. The pattern panel consists of easy eyelet “v”’s divided by 3 stitch twists (no cable needles). If you prefer, you could omit the panel on the back and instead work it all in stocking stitch - great for television knitting! Worked in a wool 4 ply yarn, but would work well in a synthetic or cotton yarn too. Worked bottom up and with full written instructions.
