Here’s a fun twist on this garter stitch yoke sweater: The body is knit sideways, and part of the lace pattern incorporates dropped stitches while binding off. Raglan sleeves also make it an almost seamless knit. The instructions state that 4.5-5.0 mm needles are suggested in order to achieve gauge for the 3 different fabrics.
