Due to requests from knitters to have my ‘Lillesand Cardigan’ made available in sweater…. here it is.
The sweater is worked in the round from the top down, increasing throughout the yoke. The sleeve
stitches are placed on hold, they will be picked up and completed after the body of the sweater has been
worked. Sweater has a simple colour work bands around the yoke, sleeve cuffs and at the bottom.
This sweater would be great for every day wear, simple and stylish, sure to become your fav.
No seaming required. Pattern has been test knitted and technical edited. I would class this
pattern suitable for the for the INTERMEDIATE knitter, however, also for the ADVANCED
beginner who is comfortable working with circular needles, and very simple stranding / fair isle
knitting.
