Wave Break Sweater
The Construction
This sweater is worked from the bottom up, in the round, then split for front and back body at the underarm which is then worked back and forth on flat. There is an option to add a bust dart at the front chest area which will give you some extra length at the front body to prevent it from picking up at the hem. Upper portion of the front body is then worked until you split again to shape for the front neck and shoulder. Do the same for the upper portion of the back body, then join the shoulder seams and work the neck finish in the round. You’ll then pick up for the sleeves around the armhole.
Sleeve options
There is an option for a short sleeve as well as long sleeve, with or without the textured fade as the body.
