This delightful turtleneck sweater in Tunisian crochet is worked top-down and in the round, using basic Tunisian rib stitches. The neckline and sleeves are worked in a 3x2 classic ribbing, while front and back are in “brioche” ribbing. On the front only of the sweater, a sinuous, “leafy” faux Cable design is created through clever increasing and decreasing.

This pattern is easy to follow, thanks to the many links to my video tutorials explaining stitches and techniques. It uses basic Tunisian crochet stitches (tss, tks, tps, Rib Stitch).
