Cool sweater with v-shape, knit in the softest yarn combo we have.
Worked top-down in raglan increase on chunky needles. Start by increasing for v-shape and sleeves, continue to increase for the body too. The neckline is picked up and knit at the end. The sleeves are quite wide down to the elbows where they are decreased rapidly and finished with a long narrow sleeves.
