Twisted Ivy
When I saw this snuggly soft, beautiful wool, I knew I wanted to knit something to wear next to the skin.
This feminine pullover is knitted seamlessly from the bottom up; with organic leaf motifs that begin at the hemline. A pretty detail, leaves are larger on the main body and a bit smaller for the sleeves.
There is waist shaping and a pretty pleat added to the back. The full-fashioned raglan sleeves are flattering and shaped to have a little bit of flare at the cuff.
This is an intermediate pattern, lace is easy but requires attention when you are decreasing. Leaf lace pattern is both written and charted.

- Sweater body and sleeves are both worked in one piece from the bottom up, then they are connected and the yoke is worked. The neckline border stitches are picked up and worked last.
- Waist shaping begins on the front of the pullover only. After back pleats are made, inc rnds are then worked on both sides of sweater.
