Bracklinn Crop
A cute cropped tee specially designed for mini skein sets and gradient yarns – although it’ll look great in any yarn! The simple stitch pattern showcases gorgeous colour combinations perfectly. The lace sections look complicated, but it’s actually just a clever combination of easy to work stitches.
We work from the top down using a simple yoked construction, all edgings are finished in neat twisted ribbing, and it’s a completely seamless knit. We give instructions for 9 sizes to fit bust 70-155 cm/28–62”.
Bracklinn Falls in the Highlands of Scotland are renowned for their stunning natural beauty. The colours of this cropped sweater are reminiscent of its clear water and spectacular rock formations.

Construction: We cast on stitches at the neckline, work increases down to the bust, separate sleeves and body, and work the body down to the hem. Edgings are finished off with neat twisted ribbing.
Pattern Difficulty: Easy/Moderate. The lace stitches are worked by doing yo’s, dropping the yo’s and working gathered stitches (full instructions are given). Apart from that it’s very straightforward.
Skills Needed: You need to be able to knit and purl, including into back loops, work m1 increases and work in the round.
