Notions :
Stitch markers (2 total; 1 unique for BOR), scissors; row counter (suggested); darning needle to weave in ends; waste yarn or stitch holders to hold your sleeve stitches.

Notes :
This raglan is knit top down, using circular needles worked in the round. The sleeves are put on holders, and the rest of the body is knit first.

The embellishment down the side is constructed by YO’s and k2tog’s, to create a base for you to lace up at the end of the knit. You will construct an Icord to lace up the sides.
