Top-Down Raglan Sweater from Measurements - IP- Spring/Summer 2026

*This class fulfills the Top Down Raglan Sweater from Measurements Requirement for WEKP.

No more dependence on patterns, no more endless purling, no more poor fit, and no more sewing seams! The top-down raglan pullover you knit will be your own design and made to your measurements. There is no pattern, only a formula into which you’ll plug your numbers. Not only is this style of sweater fun to make, and very comfortable, but it will also reflect your unique style. This sweater must be made for the person knitting it, and the knitter must have a real sense of adventure.

For the comfort and safety of our students and teachers, students may be asked to wear a mask during in person classes and workshops, and masks are available upon request.
