"This sweater was inspired by a very popular and very loved pattern called Flax by Tin Can Knits. I’ve adored this classic and timeless raglan for a long time but have never knit it for myself because I prefer to wear my sweaters more boxy. Although this sweater is very customizable I wanted the body of my Raglan loose fitting with a slimmer fitting sleeve and a wider neckline. Enter the Reagle Raglan! This is my ideal Raglan. Because I love the Flax sweater so much, I decided to insert an optional Garter panel on the sleeves. But to show that this pattern is also about a great fitting Raglan I also knit it without a Garter panel and then turned it inside out to have the Reverse Stockinette the right side. Either way this sweater is sure to be one I will reach for again and again!" - Andrea

Instructions look wonderful

While I haven’t used this pattern yet, the instructions look wonderful. I prefer a knit from the top down ever since trying one 15+ years ago.

Knitting Nicely

Moving along slowly but surely. Pattern is well written. I could do a better job of reading it! And paying attention to what I’m doing! About ready to divide for the body. I know I’m going to love the sweater.

The pattern for Reagle Raglan arrived so quickly and now can't wait to get started. Love the streamlined look and intend to knit it inside out making the reverse stocking stitch the outside.
