LiNA is the alter ego of the LiLA sweater. They both based on the same construction and edging, but the details make the difference :). It’s a basic sweater, easy to knit with a perfect fit!

If you purchase both pattern (LiNA and LiLA) or have purchased one previously, the second one is 50% off! No code needed

The pattern comes with the option for long or short sleeves, as shown in the sample :)

LiNA is worked seamlessly from the top down. The neck is shaped with short rows and then you work the yoke with increases for the body and sleeves down to sleeve separation. The sleeve stitches are then placed on hold, underarm sts are cast on, and you continue to work the body to the bottom. After the body is completed, the sleeve sts are picked up again to work the sleeves top down in the round to the end. The neck finishing is worked last.
