About the Rainbow Jumper:

The Rainbow Jumper is an oversized, cozy, colourwork jumper. It’s knit top down in the round, with a raglan construction. You start by knitting a folded collar, then knit short rows to raise the back of the neck a bit, before increasing the yoke of the sweater using a raglan sleeve construction. You then split the sleeves and the body, finish knitting the body in the round before picking the sleeves back up again. Each section of the raglan part of the construction has individual charts for your size. There are two options for body length, as well as the option for a regular or a balloon sleeve.
