Persephone Sweater

This beginner-friendly sweater is knitted using either a double strand of unspun yarn or one of Nutiden and one strand of Tencel/mohair yarn held together. It is worked top-down starting at the collar. A very deep raglan sleeve, almost dolman-like in shape and the pockets, simple and undeniably cool make this sweater utterly enjoyable to knit.

This design was inspired by the comfy, oversized look of a classic grey sweatshirt. The sort of garment I’d normally wear at home during the weekends, whilst enjoying a cup of tea and a delightful novel by my absolute favorite publisher, Persephone books.
