PATTERN INFORMATION
The Slate Sweater is knit in a drop-shoulder construction from the top-down with 4 separate charts. Stitches are cast on for the back and German short rows are used to shape the shoulders. Front shoulders are picked up from the back panel and the body is joined in the round after the yoke. The body is finished with 1x1 ribbing on smaller needles and bound off with an Italian/tubular bind off. A turtleneck is picked up and knit from the body in 1x1 ribbing on smaller needles. Sleeves are picked up and knit from the body and finished the same way as the body.
