I’m excited to announce the release of my newest design, the Monogrammed sweater!
With simple top-down construction, this pullover is a challenge and enjoyable knit.
The sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down.
The neckline is shaped with short rows and then the yoke is knit in the round. Sleeve stitches are set aside, underarm stitches are cast on and the body is completed.
Sleeve stitches are then picked up and knit down to the cuff.
The main characteristic is the intarsia colorwork on the front.
