The Obscura Sweater is worked in a two-colour mosaic pattern featuring a graphic zigzag motif. The sweater is worked from the top down with a raglan construction. The first section of the yoke is worked back and forth while the neckline is shaped. The remainder of the yoke, the body and the sleeves are then worked in the round.

The sleeves are wide and worked straight down before finishing with a deep ribbed cuff over a slightly reduced number of stitches. Finally, the neckband is worked and finished with a rolled edge. The Obscura Sweater is worked seamlessly.
