Nina
A note regarding pattern support
Effective November 2017
I will no longer be providing pattern support for free patterns. Please enjoy the free pattern.
Nina is a top down sweater knit seamlessly in the round with lacy mock cables, ¾ length sleeves and an asymmetrical shape. This sweater is an easy knit with a flattering shape. I named this sweater Nina after one of my favorite singers of all time, Nina Simone.
