No Frills Sweater The No Frills Sweater is a simple, elegant raglan sweater worked from the top down. Short rows are worked at the front neckline to create a flattering fit. The sweater has a slightly oversized silhouette, balanced by wide rib edges and a shorter body length for a feminine shape. Because it is worked top down, you can try it on as you go and easily adjust body and sleeve length. For added durability, a thin elastic thread can be sewn into the neckline. The sweater is designed with approx. 15 cm of positive ease.
