Berries-in-a-Box
La Bien Aimée is hosting a summer sweater knitting KAL over in their Ravelry Group! Check it out!
I am so excited to introduce you to, BERRIES-IN-A-BOX! I think the photos speak for themselves…
BERRIES-IN-A-BOX is fun-to-knit and so easy-to-wear. The sweater is knit all in one piece and joined using a 3-neelde I-cord bind-off (no seaming). You can choose from 2 sizes. The smaller size is for bust sizes 30 - 42” and the larger size is for bust sizes 46 -54”. It is shown in the smaller size on a model with a bust measurement of 34” and one with a bust measurement of 42”. I think you will agree, that it looks fabulous on both!
