Bear is the Sweater with a capital S. It has a classic, timeless design that will always have a place in your wardrobe. The sweater is knit top-down with unique raglan stitches that highlight the increases. A short rib follows the width of the stockinette stitch to create a straight and minimalist silhouette. The techniques are simple, making the pattern beginner-friendly.
