About Emery Sweater
Sweater features a slight oversize fit and raglan design. It is knitted top down with German short rows that raise then neck and shoulders for a perfect fit. The unique texture adds depth and a heavy drape.

Workflow
All sizes have their own charts. You’ll follow written instructions on how to read charts. A portion of the charts will be worked flat for GSR, then in the round when working the remainder of the yoke. The charts will also indicate how and when to increase. This is an intermediate difficulty knit. Experience with reading charts and working GSR is crucial. However, an adventurous beginner can also tackle this design.
