Cortado Sweater features a relaxed drop-shoulder silhouette with an effortlessly oversized fit. Full through the upper arm, the sleeves gradually taper from below the elbow into long ribbed cuffs, creating a softly bloused shape with an elegant, feminine feel.
The sweater is worked from the top down in stockinette stitch. First the back section is worked back and forth to shape the slope of the shoulders with increases. Then stitches are picked up for each shoulder, then the front pieces are knit separately until they are joined to form the front section. The front and back are joined at the underarms to form the body, which is worked in the round to the bottom ribbing. Then stitches are picked up around the neck to work the mock neck collar.
Finally, the sleeves are worked from stitches picked up around the armhole, in the round to the cuff ribbing.

Cortado Sweater はドロップショルダーでゆったりとしています。袖は太めで、肘下から手首に向かって細くしぼり、リブを長めにすることで、フェミニンな雰囲気が出るようにデザインしました。
編み方は、トップダウンで編んでいきます。まず後ろ身頃の衿から、肩のラインを増し目をしながら往復編みで編み、脇下まで編み進めます。次に左右の肩をそれぞれ別々に拾い目をし、前衿ぐりの増し目をしながら編んだ後、左右をつなげて前身頃を脇下まで編み進めます。そして前身頃と後ろ身頃をつなげて輪にし、身頃を輪編みで裾まで編みます。その後、衿を拾い目をして輪編みで編み、最後に袖を拾い目をして袖口まで輪編みで編みます。
