Colourwaves Raglan Sweater - Knitting Pattern

COLOURWAVES RAGLAN is a raglan style sweater knitted from the top down in the round. COLOURWAVES RAGLAN features a minimalist colourwork pattern that is designed in a way that allows you to choose between multiple colour placements and combinations that change the look of the sweater. First the neck is cast on using long tail cast-on, then the neck is shaped with German short rows while working raglan increases at the same time. Raglan increases are first worked in main colour and later in pattern. Afterwards, the sleeves and the body are separated. The 1x1 rib on the cuffs and hem are finished with a simple bind-off.

Please choose a size 5-15 cm larger than your actual chest circumference. For reference: the sample in the photo is in size 2 with 12 cm positive ease.
