Introducing the Window Pane Plaid Sweater knitting pattern, a stylish fusion of classic design and modern technique. This pullover showcases a timeless windowpane plaid pattern, achieved by knitting horizontal stripes, and then employing surface crochet for the vertical lines, resulting in a captivating and textured motif. The sweater boasts a clean and straightforward drop-shoulder construction, paired with a chic cropped silhouette. The addition of a cozy funnel neck and elegant bracelet-length sleeves brings an element of sophistication to this versatile garment. It also serves as the perfect layering piece and can be worn on its own or draped elegantly over a button-down shirt for a polished and put-together look.
