The Copper Leaves Raglan is a comfortable wear for any season. It is worked from top down in an around and around way creating a seamless finish. The only thing you need a needle for is to weave in the ends.

The whole raglan is made using the same crochet stitch: variation of the single crochet. (This is not Tunisian crochet)
