The Cargill Junior by Rebecca Clow is knit seamlessly from the top down with an all-over dip-stitch pattern. The back neck is cast on and shaping is worked. It’s then joined in the round and raglan increases are used to shape the yoke. The body and sleeves are split, the sleeves are put on hold and the body is finished. The sleeves are picked up and worked without decreases. This pattern is both printed and comes with a download code.
It can be knit in DK, Sport, Fingering held double or Fingering and Mohair. To see the Cargill knit in a variety of yarns and with various modifications, please see the #CargillJunior on Instagram.
