Gumdrop Sweater Pattern

The Gumdrop Sweater is a fun, lightweight and colorful garment to wear in warmer temps.  Worked from the top down seamlessly, this lovely little raglan sleeve sweater uses Serenity boucle yarn accented with mini-skeins of Wildflower yarn. The wide linen stitch hem recalls a stack of cheerful gum drops. There are options for different neck styles (Crew, Turtleneck, or Square) as well as options for sleeves (Straight and Puff).
