PURE is a very good name for my new design as I used an undyed yarn for it.

It is a seamless top-down tee with short sleeves and an interesting lace pattern on the round yoke while the rest is made in reverse stockinette (knitted on wrong side).

The range of ease across all the sizes is 6-7cm/2.5 – 2.75”.

The picture shows size 3 with 7 cm/2.75” of positive ease.

NEEDLES:
• 2.0 mm/U.S. size 0(1) 60 cm/24” circular needles or your preferred needles for knitting small circumference in the round (neck, cuffs, hem)
• 2.5 mm/U.S. size 1.5 80 cm/32” circular needles, or size needed to obtain gauge for stockinette

NOTIONS:
• stitch holders or waste yarn

PATTERN NOTES:
• I recommend swatching for the lace pattern and if you notice that it is looser than the stockinette stitch, please use smaller needles for working the lace section of your sweater.
• The sweater is worked in one piece top down. You start with neck band in twisted ribbing, then work the circular yoke according to the lace charts. After the circular yoke, you separate the sleeves and the body, then work the neck shaping with short rows and continue working the sleeves and the body separately.

SKILLS REQUIRED:
• basics (cast on/bind off, knit/purl, increase/decrease)
• short rows
• working in the round
• working from a chart
