The LoungeSweater is a casual sweater, with a boxy fit on the body and narrow sleeves. With its slightly shorter length, it is perfect with higher cut pants or narrow skirts - but of course it can also be lengthened easily and at will (option included in the instructions).
The sweater's special details are the cozy collar, its distinctive raglan sections in the pattern, and the pretty slit detail with decreases at the side seam.
It is knit in one piece from top to bottom. Short rows in the collar optimize the fit of the sweater.
