Lucy's sweater
If you purchase 4 of my designs at the same time (they need to be in the same cart), you will get the least expensive for free! Thank you so much for supporting my designs!
Combination of cotton and mohair, simple, slightly oversized body shape, wide sleeves strongly tapered at the cuff, the structure of the seed stich and the decorative raglan line that continues in the body and sleeves make the sweater interesting to knit and to look at.
LUCY’S SWEATER is knitted from top to down in rounds.
