SEE REGGIE ON RAVELRY
Meet Reggie, the compound raglan sweater designed with cooler months in mind! Crafted in collaboration with Raincloud & Sage's Nord yarn, this minimally processed beauty showcases a simple yet striking two-color motif, making it an ideal introduction to stranded colorwork.
Inspired by Audrey Hepburn's iconic look in Charade, Reggie boasts a vintage/modern aesthetic with clean lines, a stylish funnel neck, and a boxy body paired with tapered sleeves. Not a fan of funnel necks? No problem—instructions for a crew neck version are included.
For your convenience, this pattern comes with a special treat: a cheat sheet! Tackling compound raglan shaping has never been easier with a row-by-row guide for each size. Simply print it out, mark your progress, and enjoy the timeless style of Reggie in your handmade wardrobe!
