from Magazine:

  • “ Knitters who delight in creating designs with different stitches and colours will love this tweedy striped pullover with its square-cut neckline and high puffy sleeves. This sweater is worked in a series of textured stitches and colour mixtures in horizontal stripes to form the sampler effect. It is knit in four pieces then sewn together so the stripes match front and back. recommended for knitters with some experience.”
