DESCRIPTION
The PEPPA Jumper is a cozy, thick winter sweater with a mock neck collar and pretty increases and decreases on the body and sleeves.
The sweater is knitted entirely in the round with a beginner-friendly top-down raglan method.
You‘ll start working from the mock neck, then work increases for the raglan yoke. Once the yoke is finished and you have the necessary number of stitches for the back, front and sleeves, you will divide the work and leave the sleeves on hold while you work the body.
You will work the sleeves in the round from the stitches that you had left on hold, shaping them with a few decreases.
This sweater does not feature ribs at the edges.
