A great go-to shape this season with its high-low hem and honeycomb stitch shawl collar, Lithia Park is knit from the top down in a seamless, modular fashion …

… beginning with a provisional cast on at the back collar. Shoulders are provisionally cast on and worked down for a few inches, then sleeve caps are picked up and knit along with the torso of the sweater. The lower sweater is worked flat in one piece; sleeves are worked in the round. The high-low hemline results from the difference between stitch-pattern row gauges and does not use short rows.

-1 to 3” ease recommended. Shown in size 34 with 1” ease.
