This pretty sweater is an interesting mix of garter stitch and stocking stitch. The garter stitch sections have a combination of narrow and wider borders of 3-stitch textured clusters, easy to work but which give lovely interest. The border of the neck and sleeves also have narrows bands of this pretty cluster pattern. The lower parts of the front and back have some subtle shaping giving a flattering silhouette. Worked bottom up and with full written instructions.
