Beckett is a relaxed-fit sweater featuring geometric lace running from hem to shoulders, surrounding a wide solid panel of plain stockinette. The lace is repeated in the cozy cowl which drapes around the neck.

The body of this garment is knit in rounds from hem to armholes. Sweater is then divided into front and back which are worked flat to shoulders. Shoulders are joined with 3-Needle Bind Off before stitches are picked up from the body and worked down in rounds to cuffs. Cowl is worked last.

Best worn with 6-8” of positive ease; select a finished circumference that provides this amount of ease.
