Errata: The latest version of the sweater released in Feb. 2013 as part of the ebook has an error on pg.9. The C8F and C8B are labeled backwards.

For a rewarding quick knit this sweater is knit using large needles and chunky yarn, also knit from the top down for a seamless finish.

Simply elegant or cozy and casual , this “go to sweater” is also practical enough for heavy duty wear down on the farm.
Happy knitting.

The beautiful purple sweater shown above was knit by Emerald Empress and features ribbed sleeve cuffs. The original pattern features wide sleeve cuffs. If you prefer the look of the ribbed sleeve cuffs Emerald Empress has shared her MODS here
