The idea for half fishermans was born last year on a cool winter morning. I was yearning for something light and warm, something to slip in and feel good. It is my third design from this so soft and cuddly yarn.

Half fishermans is worked seamlessly from the top-down. Start working the turtleneck collar in rib pat-tern, changing to half fisherman’s pattern for the yoke. Continue, working some short rows around the neck, while working raglan increase for back and front. Start with raglan increases for the sleeves on the shoulder. After separate body and sleeve change to stockinette stitch. Finish with the cuffs, again in rib pattern.
