“This sweater was designed with all knitters in mind, beginners included! The five size, three lengths, open front and pullover styles will suite most everyone. casual fit and shaping will accommodate layered dressing. The openwork stitch is reminiscent of iron work on old garden gates, not quite obscuring not revealing what lies beyond. The cuffs are held up with buttons.

“Solid and hand dyed ribbon, boucle or other textured yarns produce great results, so don’t limit your choices to smooth yarns. The models were knitted in mohair and a cotton/acrylic blend. For this stitch, a yarn which usually measures 4 stitches per inch will produce 3.5 stitches per inch.”
