Hyla is a soft sweater with beautiful drape knit in a relaxed gauge. It has a boxy shape and is slightly cropped to pair perfectly with high-waist pants or skirts!

Hyla is worked top-down beginning with working back and forth to create the back neck, adding increases to create the front neck and sleeves. Once the neckline depth is complete you join to work in the round. Hyla has an all-over Garter stitch pattern with added simple cables in front to add more texture. After the armhole depth is created you separate for sleeves and then continue working in the round until the body is finished. Sleeves are picked up and worked in the round. Underarms are seamed later.
