The Spirit sweater

Wrap yourself in the cozy allure of modern craftsmanship with your new sweater. Designed for the contemporary spirit, this sweater seamlessly blends timeless comfort with a chic raglan silhouette. Crafted from premium materials, each stitch reflects a commitment to both warmth and style. Elevate your wardrobe with this versatile piece that effortlessly transitions from casual days to chic evenings. Embrace the modern coziness – where tradition meets trend, stitch by stitch.

Sweater is worked top-down and in-the-round.

Yarn is held single throughout, using one strand of each color, but it can be used just one color to if you like. Short rows are used to raise the front of the hi-low hem. After the raglan increases are complete, the sweater is divided at the underarm. Body is completed, then the sleeves, then the neck. For an extra stretchy bind off, it is recommended to use a needle size 1-2 sizes bigger than the Smaller Needle.
