The Everyday Sweater is exactly what its name suggests: a comfortable, easy-to-wear chunky knit made for ordinary days, cold walks and reaching for again and again.
It has a relaxed fit, classic raglan shaping and a softly rolled neckline, hem and cuffs. If you prefer a neater finish, instructions are also included for adding simple ribbing. The length is customisable too, so you can make it cropped, traditionally fitted or longer and slouchier.
The front, back and sleeves are knitted flat before the raglan seams are joined and the neckline is added. This makes it a lovely first sweater for a confident beginner who is ready to move beyond basic rectangles and try simple shaping. An optional modification is included for knitting the lower body in the round if you would rather avoid some of the purl rows and side seams.
