Long-sleeved tunic with a graphic seed-stitch pattern on a stockinette-stitch base, knit in the round up to the armholes. (Worn by model on the right on the book cover.) This sweater is roomy but has a slight feminine taper created by decreases and increases in the pattern stitches. The two sizes are ample, and will look good on every body.

Pattern erratum

As I had an issue with the sleeve length given in the book, I e-mailed with the designer. She corrected the sleeve pattern increases for the larger size as follows:
Instead of working 18 increases every 8th row, work them every 6th row and continue until 18” of total sleeve length are reached.

For the smaller size, do as given in the book (12 increases every 8th row).
