Ludivine Jumper is a perfect project for getting started with circular knitting, offering a classic piece that can be endlessly adapted to build your wardrobe to your taste. Its slightly oversized cut falls fluidly over the hips, wrapping you in a warm and comforting cloud for cool evenings or cold days.

CONSTRUCTION: This pattern is constructed top-down without seams. You'll start with the 1x1 ribbed collar, then divide your work to make increases along the raglan lines. Once your increases are done, you'll place your sleeves on hold to construct the body down to the ribbing. Then you'll pick up stitches for your sleeves to knit them in the round down to the wrist.
