FISHERMAN’S RAGLAN is a rustic raglan-style sweater with relaxed fit and a beautiful, subtle textured stitch panel featuring small herringbone stitch ‘braids’ on front of the sweater and matching decorative raglan-braids. The sweater is knitted from the bottom up in the round, starting with a 2x2 ribbing that flows into the braids on front of the body. The sleeves are knitted separately in stockinette stitch and then joined with the body on a long circular needle. The sweater is then shaped using raglan decreases on each side of the raglan-braids, whilst continuing the pattern on front of the sweater. Subsequently, the neck is shaped with German short rows while continuing the pattern and working raglan decreases at the same time. The turtleneck is worked once again in 2x2 ribbing, with knit stitches flowing out of the ‘braids’ in the pattern just like at the bottom of the body.Please choose a size 10-15 cm larger than your actual chest circumference.

This top down sweater is a canvas for playing with different yarns. Select the gauge for your size and begin knitting the short row asymmetrical yoke. There is another short row section to bring the sweater down to the waistline and simple stockinette tubes for the sleeves. The sweater construction is easy to customize so it matches your body proportions. Enchanted Mesa is for the playful and adventurous knitters out there who like to make improvisational yarn and color choices. Grab your favorite yarns and have fun! The English PDF instructions include an optional brioche border and notes on how to expand your project into a longer dress. Sizes One size, customizable with varying gauges. The pattern is written in one size with DK weight yarn (4.5 sts = 1” / 2.5cm). For varying sizes, follow the gauge chart. Swatch with different yarns and needle sizes to get gauge for your desired size. This sweater is meant to fit with a few inches or more of positive ease to accentuate the drape in the body of the sweater. The same sweater with 4.5 sts / 1” is modeled on a 37” / 94cm and a 41” / 104cm chest circumference for 6” / 15cm and 2” / 5cm of positive ease. 3.5 sts = 1” / 2.5cm Chest Circumference - 56” / 142cm Sleeve Circumference - 15” / 38cm Recommended Yarn Weight - Heavy Worsted/Worsted 4 sts = 1” / 2.5cm Chest Circumference - 49” / 124cm Sleeve Circumference - 13” / 33cm Recommended Yarn Weight - Worsted 4.5 sts = 1” / 2.5cm (Sample Size) Chest Circumference - 43” / 109cm Sleeve Circumference - 12” / 30cm Recommended Yarn Weight - DK / Worsted 5 sts = 1” / 2.5cm Chest Circumference - 39” / 99cm Sleeve Circumference - 10.5” / 27cm Recommended Yarn Weight - Sport/DK 5.5 sts = 1” / 2.5cm Chest Circumference - 36” / 91cm Sleeve Circumference - 9.5” / 24cm Recommended Yarn Weight - Sport/Fingering 6 sts = 1” / 2.5cm Chest Circumference - 33” / 84cm Sleeve Circumference - 8.5” / 22cm Recommended Yarn Weight - Fingering/Lace Body and sleeve lengths are customizable. For tighter or looser sleeves, you can change the needle size to get a different gauge. Yarn DK weight and thinner with 4.5 stitches = 1” / 2.5cm DK weight is the thickest yarn I used. Other yarns are sport, fingering and lace weight yarns with the same needle size for sections with more drape and airiness. Working with smaller yarns using the same needle size usually results in a similar gauge. The sample pictured uses a single strand of DK or fingering weight yarns as well as two strands of lace weight held together and one strand of lace weight and one strand of fingering weight held together. Be adventurous and freely mix different colors and fibers together. Instructions are written using colors A, B, C, etc… to mark when different colors are used, but feel free to ignore the exact color changes and throw in bits of color and texture whenever you want. If one section is striped but you feel like using one ball of yarn, make it solid. If another section is solid, but you’re feeling antsy and adventurous then throw in a dozen different colors. Have fun and make it your own! Yardage The total yardage for a version with 4.5 sts / 1” is approximately 1200yds / 1097m. This sweater is meant to use odd balls and scrap yarn for a patchwork/color blocked effect. If you run out of yarn in one section grab another ball of yarn and keep knitting! Shown in Quince & Co.

Have you heard of braiding onions? It’s sort of like French braiding hair: take a dozen or so onions that still have their stalks attached, and, starting with three, gradually work more in as you go. The result is a beautiful, natural chain of onions that can be hung in your kitchen and taken from as needed. Braided onions aren’t just aesthetically pleasing; the technique of braiding and hanging them provides better air circulation around the onions than storing in a bin.
