A marriage of some of my favorite sweater elements, this pullover includes top down raglan-style seamless sleeves, all over easy-to-knit texture, and a split hem along with sleeve detail. Three sleeve options are provided, cap sleeves, blousy long sleeves & shaped long sleeves. This pullover adds effortless style to any outfit and knits up quickly in a worsted weight gauge whether you knit it cropped or long. Schematic is include in the photos so keep swiping to check out the fit! Don’t forget to admire the KO test crew for this design: see my gals right here!

This is the first of three patterns in a collaboration with La Bien Aimée’s Corrie Worsted yarn base. Check out the entire collection here. These pieces are carefully curated to add comfort, versatility & style to your hand-knit wardrobe. My hope is that you’ll reach for them time and again and that they bring you as much joy to knit and wear as they have to me. The collection is a true collaboration and I loved incorporating design feature ideas from my talented friend Aimée of LBA!

Sizing: Choose a size that is 1-4”/2.5-10 cm larger than actual chest measurement. Sample is shown in size 2 with approximately 1.5”/4 cm positive ease. Crops are for everyone! Check out this video for some styling ideas of how you can crop.
