Lilibet junior sweater
Vaporous like a cloud, “Lilibet” is a romantic sweater worked top down, in round, seamlessly.
The pattern comes in 8 sizes from 3 to 14 years old.
The yoke is worked in Smocking stitch, which creates an interesting, raised diamond pattern.
The Smocking stitch pattern is repeated every 5th row, increasing the number of stitches involved along the way.
The body is worked in the round in stockinette stitch with the smocking stitch pattern in the sides, between the front and the back panels.
