Moray Sweater (English)

£6.50

This pattern is in English.

Moray Sweater has a raglan structure with classic stripes worked throughout. The sweater is worked from the top down. First the neck edge is worked and folded over, then short rows are worked to create shape to the neck as part of the yoke. The remainder of the yoke is worked in the round with raglan increases. The sweater is then divided for the body and sleeves, and new stitches are cast on for the underarms. The body and sleeves are finished separately and worked in the round, and the edges are bound off using the Italian Bind-off technique.
