Attersee, named after a beautiful lake in Austria, is a sweater that features double v-necks: one in the front and a deeper one in the back. It’s a long sweater that pairs perfectly with boots and leggings, though you have the freedom to make it a normal sweater length if you prefer :)

It is worked from the bottom up in the round. You work the v-neck shaping as you go along and split for the front and back to shape each piece. Then you join with a 3 needle bind off at the shoulders and PU and knit the sleeves down in the round. Finally, you pick up sts for the neckline and work the neck ribbing.
