DISCOVER SMOCKING WITH SARAH MURRAY’S AUTUMNAL DESIGN
We love it when we get the opportunity to try a new stitch effect and this snug sweater features a gorgeous geometric-patterned yoke with fabulous texture. It’s created using a clever wrapping effect - see our Special abbreviations panel for how to do it. Most of the garment is worked in stocking stitch and as it’s an aran-weight yarn, it’ll grow so quickly you’ll soon reach the exciting part!
