CONSTRUCTION
This top-down raglan sweater begins with a folded polo collar worked using Judy’s Magic Cast-On to create a double-layer fabric for the collar. Stitches at either end of the collar are put on hold for the plackets. German Short Rows shape the back neckline before the transition into a raglan yoke accented with integrated cable panels. The front opening is finished with picked-up placket edges in double knitting. After separating at the underarms, the body is worked straight down to the hem, which is worked in 1 x 1 Rib and finished with a neat Tubular (Italian) Bind-Off. The short sleeves are knitted in the round and completed with decorative frills that are cast on separately and joined to the sleeve edges with crochet.
