Sonesta Sweater
About the Pattern:
This sweater is constructed from the bottom up, and features a fun and engaging colorwork pattern over the body of the sweater. In order to continue the pattern on the body without having to purl, the sleeve armholes and the collar are all steeked. The sleeves and collar are then picked up and worked in the round. A video tutorial has been included for setting up and cutting the steeks, for those unfamiliar with the technique.
