Petite Knit Festival Sweater - My Size - Knitting Pattern / Kit
The Festival Sweater – My Size is worked from the top down. The neck edge is folded and knitted together and short rows are worked to shape the neckline. After this, increases are worked evenly distributed down the circular yoke. The stripes are worked in a technique which creates small bobbles.
