A textured panel of knitted and purled stitches runs down the front of the Shoji Sweater, echoing the gridded appearance of the traditional Japanese sliding doors for which the sweater is named. The classic raglan shaping is worked from the top down in the round. The sleeves are worked in a simple textured stitch, while the majority of the body is worked in soothing stockinette.
