Riu

Riu is a top-down raglan which offers multiple shape options. Opt for a ribbed or an I-cord neckline, a straight body or curve in some waist and hip shaping and choose being a regular hem or a high-low curved bottom.

All these options can be mixed and matched along with a colour-block idea. Knit in DK weight, it's a quick project that makes a customizable wearable garment. Its subtle texture on the sides adds a bit of interest to this simple knit.

The raglan instructions are set in a cheat sheet and the pattern includes a video explaining how to read and understand the construction technique.
