Tendre is an ultra-cozy sweater with a modern boxy silhouette, V-shaped neckline, and lightly gathered sleeves. Clean lines and interesting texture – this is all you need for an ultimate knitting pleasure!
First, the yoke is worked back and forth until neck shaping is complete, then the sweater is worked in the round in a completely seamless raglan way. The neckband, bottom hem, and sleeves cuffs are worked in rib.
Tendre is designed to highlight the yarn texture, which creates a soft and light knit fabric. The sample pictured is knitted with Boucle by Julie Asselin.
The pattern has written instructions and schematic.

This design has been created in collaboration with Julie Asselin.
