This is a “must have” basic addition to anyone’s wardrobe. The ribbing works its way all the way down the body, elongating the body and adding dimension (and hiding any unwanted bulges) to this easy to knit sweater. With raglan sleeves and front darts, the fit is superb and it can easily be worn with jeans, slacks or a skirt. Choose a yarn that you want to show off; it is worth using a hand-dyed yarn (as shown) or exotic fiber yarn. But choose something soft, so that you don’t have to wear anything underneath!
