“This smart V-neck sweater is knitted seamlessly from the top down, and features diagonal English-style tailored shoulders which include a subtle eyelet detail,” explains Sylvia Heidinger. “The yoke is worked flat before the body is joined and finished in the round. Sleeve stitches are later picked up and sleeves are knitted in the round. The deep neckband is worked last, and is knitted flat.”

Sylvia has used Cascade’s soft and warm Woolpaka yarn, which knits to a worsted weight.
