I wanted an everyday knit sweater that was pretty easy to work up. I went with a crocheted trim because it accommodated my basic knit skills. I liked the way the first one came out that I did a 2nd one, also.

The pattern is available, but not for the faint of heart. As this is my first knit pattern, I believe it to be complete and correct, albeit, a bit unconventional.
