Pattern information

Whisky on the rocks offers many flavors to discover. Just like the noble liquor Whisky On The Rocks surprises and transforms process of knitting into a journey full of adventures.

The pullover is worked seamlessly from the top to bottom using the modified set-in-sleeve contiguous method developed by Susie Myers. Once the cowl is done, the neck opening along with the shoulders are shaped using short rows. The upper back is worked flat. The front panel is worked flat in two pieces from the centre of the pullover towards its ends and is joined to the body of the sweater using short rows as you go. After completing both sides of panel and sleeves (worked in the round), stitches for front are picked up along the panel edge and joined with the back piece. The bottom body is worked as last and in the round.
