The Seashells Sweater is a feminine design featuring playful bubble and eyelet details. The sweater is worked bottom-up. First, the body is knitted to underarm length, then the sleeves are worked separately.

The pieces are joined on one needle, and the yoke is shaped with raglan decreases.

The neckline is finished with a classic rib edge.
The Seashells Sweater is a quick and enjoyable project with very little purling. It’s easier to knit than it looks – especially if you enjoy textured knitting.
