Light Wave
Pattern notes:
This lightweight sweater is worked seamlessly from the bottom up. The body is worked in the round to the underarms, after which the front and back are separated and worked back and forth. The shoulders are joined by casting on new stitches and working short rows in a chevron pattern. Stitches are then picked up for the sleeves which are worked in the round. The neckline and cuffs are finished with ribbing.
