HIGH V-NECK RAGLAN
I originally designed this sweater in 1997, in a yarn that was discontinued after I finished the garment!

I have been wanting to rework the design, and have finally found the yarns that, I think, best suit this cozy weekend sweater - Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride! And, instead of using just the bulky wt. of yarn, as was similar to the original, I've also worked up the pattern in the worsted wt., as well, to accommodate those knitters desiring a lighter weight sweater. I've worked the worsted wt. version in a fiery red - my color!

This circularly knit sweater pattern is written in 5 sizes, for a wide range of body sizes. I've also tweaked the design, from the original, with long tail CO in rib, striping, and a change in sizings.

I have also worked up this design in children's sizes, in both wts of Lamb's Pride, as a separate pattern.

See Kids version here.
