Horizon
The sweater is inspired by broad and open areas of grasslands stretching to the far horizon. An unusual construction creates an eye-catching and comfortable piece for any season.
Pattern notes
The shoulder section is worked sideways from a provisional cast on. Thoughtful shoulder and neckline shaping highlight the simplicity. The body is worked from picked up stitches down to the hem. Finally sleeves are worked from live and picked up stitches. This garment is entirely seamless.
