The Wildflower is a simple raglan sweater knitting pattern with a crew neck, boxy sleeves, and clean i-cord edges. Easy to knit, but use a Pretty Print yarn and the result looks anything but. The print does the designing for you.
The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down with raglan increases. You begin by casting on stitches for the yoke and working back and forth with increases to shape the neckline opening. The shoulders are joined by the front neck, and the yoke is knitted in the round with raglan increases. The sleeve stitches are placed on hold, and the body is worked in the round. The neckline ribbing is worked by picking up stitches along the neckline opening. Finally, the sleeves are worked from the held stitches.
