VesterbyCrea.No.52 is a sweater worked in fisherman’s rib. The sweater is worked from the top down. The back is worked first in fisherman’s rib. The front is shaped by working one shoulder at a time with a few increases and joined using additional cable cast-on stitches. The front is then worked back and forth in the same fisherman’s rib pattern as the back. The body is worked by joining the front and back and continuing in the round in fisherman’s rib. The body is finished with a double-knit hem and an Italian bind-off. The sleeves are picked up along the armholes and worked in the round in fisherman’s rib. They are finished with a short double-knit cuff and an Italian bind-off as well. The sweater requires no seaming.
