Urban environments can provide many excellent design inspirations, and external staircases on tall buildings are particularly dramatic examples. This sweater uses twisted stitches and contrasting textures to create the effect of a wide staircase making its way between building levels. Each building level and staircase return is highlighted with a stripe in a contrasting shade.

The Leadenhall Sweater knitting pattern is a beautifully textured design that combines twisted stitches, cables, and stripes for a sophisticated look. With a crew neck and long sleeves, this intermediate-level pattern is worked flat and seamed, featuring a bottom-up construction. The pattern includes both written and chart instructions, as well as a schematic for easy assembly. Available in 7 sizes to fit bust measurements from 81-86cm/32-34in up to 142-147cm/56-58in.
