Primrose Sweater
The Primrose Sweater is a delicate sweater featuring a two different textures; a double moss stitch and fun-to-knit slip stitch pattern.
First, the back is worked back and forth with increases to shape the shoulders. Stitches are then picked up along the slanted edge, where the increases were worked to form each shoulder, and worked back and forth whilst shaping the neck. The shoulders are joined at the front of the neck and worked back and forth. The front is then joined to the back at the underarms and worked in the round until the desired length is achieved. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole opening; short rows are worked to shape the shoulder followed by working in the round across the sleeve whilst working strategically placed decreases to taper the sleeves without disrupting the textured patterns. The body and sleeves are finished in ribbing. Finally, stitches are picked up and knitted in rib along the neck edge, then folded over and secured on the wrong side.
