“I love the casual nature of sweatshirts but I wanted to add just a little more interest. The addition of a honeycomb lace panel at the front and delicate shoulder shaping makes this a very distinctive knitted sweatshirt.
This sweater is knit from the top down in the round, with minimal shaping at the neck and waist. It can be worn as a casual top with jeans or even as a warm layer over a more formal outfit.” – Carol Feller


CONSTRUCTION
Sweater is worked in one piece from the neck down. Stitches are placed on hold for the Sleeves after working the Yoke. Stitches are cast on for the underarms, and work continues in the round over the Body stitches. Sleeves are worked after completion of the Body.
