ELEVATION_LOOP_SWEATER is a sweater designed with an oversized silhouette and an elegant saddle shoulder that carries across the entire back inspired by classical men’s knitwear.

The sweater is worked top down in one piece and is seamless. First you cast on stitches at the middle of the back, working flat firstly for the left, then the right shoulder.

Then stitches are picked up along the front and back sections of the shoulder pieces. Then, work flat while making increases for the sleeves and neckline. The work is joined in the round by casting on stitches and the yoke is then worked in the round. Then the work is divided into body and sleeves which are worked one at a time and finished with edges in 2×2 rib. To finish, pick up sts around the neckline and work 2×2 rib. The rib edge is finished with a tubular bind off.
