Suzie

Suzie is a raglan sleeve sweater that is knitted with two yarns held together (a fingering weight yarn and a lace mohair) to make it warm for the cooler months. Its round neckline gives it a very feminine look. Finishes are long 2/2 ribs on the wrists and body hem.

Very accessible to beginners. Can also be knitted with a single DK weight yarn to make it lighter for the mid-season.

The construction is top-down.
