Cotton Gras is round Yoke sweater with radial increasing first and with elements of classic Raglan increasing. Pullover has a slightly A-silhouette. Few groups of DS German Short rows is used for a shape better fit. Sweater is knitted seamless top down with a slightly longer than usual bracelet sleeves.
The Yoke with a beautiful lace pattern that remind me on Cotton Grass flowers is worked first, with followed few rounds of classic Raglan increasing. Then in ‘’ Dividing Body and Sleeves ‘’ section stitches of both of sleeves are setting on hold and Body of pullover is knitted. After finishing Body Sleeves are taken from hold and worked top down to the Cuffs.
