This sweater, with a beautiful four-stranded braid in the front, is knit from the neck down with increases at the raglan seams. There is minimal finishing to be done, as the sweater is joined at the underarms and knit to the hipband, and has a self-band at the back edges.

Instructions are given to finish the pattern with short or long sleeves, to lengthen it into a dress, or to create a matching cabled headband or cable-edged hat. Note: The crocheted rosettes pictured are from my “Enchanting Extras” pattern, available separately.

Supplies

  • Lightweight fingering yarn--I used “Palette” or “Stroll” available from www.knitpicks.com.
  • Knitting Needles sized 000 and 0 (1.5 & 2 mm)
  • 4 place markers
  • 5-6 sets 4/0 snaps & matching thread for finishing
