Oldies but Goldies – It’s Time to Say Goodbye!

THIS PATTERN IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE

As you may know, I strive for perfection in both my knitting and pattern writing.

When I started 11 years ago, my pattern writing skills weren’t as developed as they are today. While these older patterns aren’t bad, they no longer meet my current standards and many are not size-inclusive.

To make this farewell a bit easier, I’m offering a 50% discount on Ravelry, which will apply automatically at checkout.

If you’re interested in any of these patterns, act quickly! You can find all the “Oldies” in the “Time to Retire“ bundle.

These patterns will be removed in a few days!

This plain sweater is pure understatement and simplicity… the beautifully corded ends and the professional shoulder-construction will attract all views…

Nearly seamless (only a few stitches to fix the shoulders and attach the hem and collar from inside).
Starting separately with sleeves and body, worked from the bottom up (which is necessary for the shoulder-construction) … optional bust darts … joined under arms … the armholes and shoulders are worked in one piece up to a beautiful shoulder solution. Cords and double hems, are worked in contrasting colour.
A classic basic sweater with smart little details and a professional look.

many thanks to my testers! see some beautiful projects here

Klassik pur …
Ein Baisc mit raffinierten Details und professionellem Look.

Für die schöne Schulterlösung wird dieser Pulli von unten nach oben gestrickt. Begonnen wird mit Ärmel und Körper jeweils in Runden (Option für Brustabnäher ), unter den Armen zusammengeführt und bis zum Kragen nahtlos hinaufgearbeitet. Nur ein paar Stiche an der Schulter sind nötig.
Die Cords am Ausschnitt und an den Abschlüssen werden am Ende hinzugefügt und die umgeschlagenen Säume mit ein paar Stichen fixiert.
