Arachne Pullover

Arachne is a cozy raglan sweater with spider cabled sleeves. It’s perfect for the Halloween season of course, but it’s also great year-round!

Arachne is worked seamlessly from the top down. The back and sleeves are cast on first and worked flat while you shape the neckline. You’ll then join in the round and work the body seamlessly.  Sleeves are worked in reverse stockinette, and the sleeves are worked in the round from the underarm to the cuff.

The wow-factor is super high with this sweater- you will love knitting and wearing it!
