The Greendale V-neck Sweater is an oversized set-in sweater with a flattering deep V-neck, relaxed sleeves, a side slit and a long flowing 2x2 rib that adds a structured, elegant finish. Worked in Sandnes Kos with an alpaca companion thread for extra softness, drape and warmth.

This pattern is made with the Dreamknit Design Tool. Knit it exactly as shown or feel free to change the yarn, the design or details to make it your own. You can also start a brand new design from scratch from our website. As a Dreamknit member you can customize any of our patterns, and download this one for free.

The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. You start with the back piece before picking up stitches for each shoulder separately and shaping the neckline opening with increases. The front and back pieces are joined under the armhole and the body is worked in the round. The sleeves are worked top down by picking up stitches.
