Light Frost is knit seamlessly from top to bottom, making it easy to try on as you go. The back shoulders are knit first, worked back and forth to the underarms and placed on hold. Stitches are then picked up for each front shoulder and worked to the underarms where front and back are joined and knit in the round to the hem. Sleeves are picked up directly from the body and worked in the round to the cuffs.

The combination of an easy-care, lightweight fabric and a comfortable, universally flattering silhouette had this sweater immediately going into my regular rotation. Consider choosing a fingering weight yarn with similar characteristics for a soft yet durable sweater.
