The Antónia sweater is knitted in the round, seamlessly from the top down. The yoke is worked with an ensemble of lacy motifs and ends with a few rounds in tuck-in and picot stitches, adding a wavy shape and texture
to the yoke. The fit is slightly boxy with fitted yoke and sleeves, which I like to call “Petit Boxy” style!
