When I think about my favourite sweaters in my wardrobe, they are the easy-to-wear ones I find myself reaching for again and again. They are comfortable to wear and their simplicity makes them easy to style with a variety of outfits. \u003ci\u003eFarasta\u003c\/i\u003e is straightforward to knit with top-down raglan construction and simple stockinette stitch paired with ribbing on the v-neck collar and cuffs.
