The Gro Sweater and T-shirt is a classic and well-fitting top with puff detailing on the shoulder as an added design element. The top is knit top down starting with the twisted rib neckline before increasing on the shoulders at the same time as short rows are added to shape the front neckline. The yoke and sleeve caps are shaped at the same time with different rates of increases which will give the finished garment a perfect fit.

The garment can be knit in your favorite yarn matching the pattern gauge, either by holding one strand single, or two strands of thinner yarn together.
