DESCRIPTION
Avanzi sweater: This scrap sweater pattern was created to use up some of the single skeins of yarn around my house! This sweater is all about being playful and having fun with color! I used two skeins of worsted yarn for the body, V-neckband, and cuffs and one skein of fingering yarn, held double, for the sleeves and the lateral stripes.
This sweater features a v-neck, cable sleeves, a ribbed edge, and cuffs. The top-down sweater continues into the stockinette stitch body with a vertical stripe in contrast color as an underarm detail
The pattern includes suggestions for trying it on as you work and notations to help you adjust the size according to your preference.
