ELM EMBRACE

Design Lisa Renner Difficulty level 3-4

The sweater is worked from the top down in a brioche stitch pattern. We begin by working the neck edge back and forth over the shoulder and back. Gradually, new stitches are created for the front. The work is then joined and worked in the round.

The design has saddle shoulders. This means that increases are worked along the shoulder cap and then in the sleeve. You don't need to understand the pattern before you start knitting. Just follow the instructions, and you will be guided all the way.

This sweater is reversible. You can choose to wear it with the right side out or the wrong side out.

The pattern is also available in the PDF magazine EMBRACE COLLECTION
