This loose-fitting raglan-sleeved sweater is easy to make and comfortable to wear. It's knit side-to-side in a simple garter stitch, and blocked to enhance hemp yarn's natural drape. The clever knit uses two needle sizes on each row, creating bands along the lower edges. Styled like the Men's Casual Garter Stitch Pullover, but with the addition of flattering vertical slip stitch detailing.

Designed for advanced beginners, who know how to use circular and double-pointed needles. You'll need 4.0 mm (6 US) 32" circular needles and 3.25 mm (3 US) 16" circular needles or double-pointed needles. For these finished chest measurements, you'll need the following amounts of Vibrant or Primary allhemp6 yarn: 42" chest, 8 skeins; 45" chest, 9 skeins; 49" or 54" chest, 10 skeins.
