Easy Street Sweater Kit
price: $138.00
This top down, raglan sweater is a breeze to knit in simple stockinette, knit in the round. I love having a project like this around when I’m too fried to count or read a chart and just want a relaxing pattern to knit! It’s super beginner friendly too! The pattern itself is based on one of my beloved sweaters that I bought in my 20s. The fit was just right, snug but not too snug and an overall wear everywhere sweater. My favorite details is the double layer rib along the neckline. I’ve been trying to recreate it for 20+ years, ha! Added bonus, this sweater does not use much yarn either.
