Alba Sweater

The Alba Sweater is an oversized sweater. It is worked in textured stitch from the top down. The neckline is worked first, followed by short rows to shape the neckline and create a better fit. Raglan increases are then worked, after which the sleeves are placed on hold while the body is worked. Finally, the sleeves are worked. All edges are finished with an Italian bind-off.
