PATTERN NOTES
A cozy and feminine pullover is a must have in any sweater lover’s wardrobe. Like a ballerina’s warm-up clothing, it is a throw-it-on piece that is comfortable and easy, but never lacks style. For the Prima sweater, we chose two shades of Odette that perfectly embody that feminine appeal with a cozy fit. The striped yoke design, worked in a contrasting color, creates a gorgeous pattern that reminds us of rhythmic choreography. You’ll find this sweater fun to knit and you won’t want to live without it!
This pullover is knit in the round from the bottom up. The body and sleeves are worked separately, then are joined at the underarm for the yoke. In this pattern, all slipped stitches are worked purlwise with yarn held in back unless otherwise noted.
