DIFFICULTY LEVEL: BEGINNER
Beginner The blouse is designed for beginners who want to knit their first raglan sweater from the top down, knitted with 2 strands of NewRetex Fiber yarn + 1 strand of Silk Mohair. The pattern is simple, and focuses on making the knitting process easy and accessible, with instructions and videos for all the necessary techniques. The first pages review the pattern and the techniques used. This is followed by the pattern itself. If you are an experienced knitter, you can skip the introduction and go straight to the pattern.

Is your yarn stock low - or does it just need a breath of fresh air? Then buy a Stopgarnspil package from Garnspecialisten, which sells deadstock and surplus yarn that would have been burned if they hadn't saved it.
