Notes From the Designer:
•Everyone needs a raglan or two in their wardrobe. This is an updated version of everyone’s favorite tee, with 3/4 flared sleeves, feminine waist shaping, and a modern take on the classic v-neck. Knit in a lace weight yarn at an open gauge, it’s light and warm; a great transitional weather piece. You’ll never want to take it off!
•Knit from the bottom up in pieces and seamed at the sides and under the arms. The sleeves are set in and seamed. The shoulders are grafted using the three needle BO. Sts are picked up and worked in the round to complete the neck trim. All waist shaping is accomplished with changes in needle size, so you won’t have to keep up with increases and decreases.
•This is an intermediate pattern for knitters with some garment experience. None of the individual pieces are complicated to work, but there are a lot of things happening at the same time, so you’ll need to be comfortable working multiple sets of directions simultaneously.
•For me, this piece is all about the neckline. It was inspired by the neckline on the catsuits worn by Seven of Nine on Star Trek Voyager, which I was binge-watching while designing this piece. Say what you will about the rest of the suit, but I’m absolutely crazy about that diamond shaped neckline. I had to put my spin on it, and named this pattern for the character who inspired it.
Errata: For size L only, after the decrease row after the hem, you should have 118 sts, not 120.
