One for All
One for All
Your Easy to Knit, Easy to Wear Raglan
This easy knit raglan is a pleasure to make and a pleasure to wear. It's knit seamlessly from the top down, and features forgiving in-the-round construction and a gentle bell-shape through the body for a silhouette that gives you room to move. This pattern includes bust darts for a great fit, and comes with an illustrated guide for knitters making their first sweater. One for All is ready for your next Stitch Night!
"This is such a relaxing, top down, raglan sweater with one of my favorite details ever - cable raglans! Very straight forward, but still with the great fit we can expect from your patterns. I'm top down/bottom up agnostic (Thanks to Jen!), but it's always nice to be able to try on your WIP as you go, without seaming." - Marina, user experience knitter

Construction
Construction
You’ll begin One for All by casting on stitches and working German short rows to shape the neck. You’ll then work in the round to the underarms, before splitting for the body and sleeves, which are also worked in the round toward the cuff. The body has a gentle bell shape, with increases worked in concentric rings. Finally, stitches are picked up and worked for the standing collar.
