The Fineline sweater is a modern twist on the classic Breton striped top, a versatile wardrobe staple for many. The sweater features the expected horizontal stripes of colour throughout, but here the stripes fade in and out randomly, creating an eye-catching yet minimalist aesthetic. The neckline is elegantly scooped and the length is cropped to the natural waistline, making it a relatively quick knit, and with 2-4” of intended ease, all-in-all this is a highly flattering and versatile garment that would suit many wearers and many styles.

Gauge
Using 4mm / US size 6 needles and working stockinette in the round, 22 stitches over 32 rounds creates a 4x4” square.
