NOTES | This pullover raglan is knit seamless from top to bottom and meant to be worn with 2-4 inches of positive ease. The hem is split at the sides and lower in the back than the front. The top of the raglan is knit flat to shape the neckline, using the MC only, until joined to work in the round. The stripes then follow a sequence of 12 rounds each. The cuffs, hem and collar are knit using the MC. To see a tutorial on how to knit Jogless stripes, click HERE. Follow the striping sequence of the sample or play with more colors; either way The Rugby Raglan will fly off your needles!
