Depending on amount of ease this will fit sizes from 33-35”. Small sizes will get an oversized sweater; larger sizes a closer fitted version.



Here's an update of Valentine's Day Sweater.
Made some clarifying points of the needles, work steps, and expanded the list of abbreviations

oh and changed the name to something more I think  :) Now it's I Love Raglan


Happy knitting,
