This lovely oversized model is knitted in fluffy yarn on the slightly larger needles. This gives it a light and airy look. It is knitted from the top down, with reverse needles in the neck for a better fit. It is knitted in stripes, with 2 different types of yarn, to create a little structure in the stripes. It is a classic raglan model, and is knitted in the round with the same needle size. This model has 3/4 length sleeves, and is super nice with a mesh sweater underneath. Alternatively, long sleeves can be knitted. However, it will require a lot more yarn.
