Follow The Path Sweater - knitting pattern
On Sale
£6.50
£6.50
Follow The Path is a top-down and seamless sweater made in a simple lace rib pattern. The sweater has an unusual construction: It starts with a panel that runs across the back, then stitches for the back and front are picked up from the panel. The fronts are worked diagonally, which creates a v-neck, without the need for neck shaping.
The pattern gives you 2 sleeve length options: sleeveless, finished with 1x1 rib around the armholes, and long sleeves which can be modified to make sleeves of any length.
