10 Days is a ligthweight sweater with many beautiful details. It’s worked from top down, shaping the neck and hem with short rows. The contrasting edges and button bands add a special touch.
The pattern includes a schematic for button band placement and photo tutorials for purl increases and German short rows. The sleeves can be worked either in Reverse stockinette or inside out in Stockinette stitch if you’d like to avoid purling. Instructions for both methods are provided.

This pattern was completely rewritten in May 2016. The new version has a shorter placket and better fit. If you have already purchased this pattern, please go to your pattern library and click “update”.
