Quite Contrary
I wrote up this pattern after finding a lovely video for a cockleshell pattern on YouTube by canselin örgü dünyası. I used the basic raglan sweater recipe by TinCan knits (Flax Lite) as the basis of the sweater, with significant modifications for the sleeve length, neckline, and raglan increases. Both written and charted instructions are provided for the lace chart, with links to the original video. I recommend you peruse the video and swatch the lace pattern before casting on the sweater.
