Hilda
Welcome new Hilda! – reintroduced top-down this time and worked in-the-round. My Hilda design is a two-color, fitted pullover with a wide shawl collar. Three-quarter length sleeves are top-down, in-the-round too, and set in. The collar, worked from stitches picked up along neckline edges, is shaped with short rows. This knit is a fun one, and trimmed with a second color, a bit of a stash buster too – a win-win. Enjoy!
