PATTERN NOTES
The fan-favorite Neighborhood Sweater a seamless, top down pullover with raglan shaping and delightful stripes! Plus it’s so cozy that you favorite sweatshirt might just fall by the wayside.

The pattern includes options for both a boatneck and a crew neck. The boatneck version is knit entirely in the round, while the crew neck version is worked flat for the neckline shaping before being joined to work in the round. The sleeves are knit in the round from the underarm to the cuff.

The Stripe Sequence is worked at the same time as the raglan increases (and the rest of the sweater) and is found at the beginning of the pattern. It’s a pretty easy sequence to memorize: one additional 2-round CC stripe is added after each 6-round CC stripe. After the first CC stripe the MC stripes are always 4 rounds.
