Marsh
Pre-order the book at Laine stockists worldwide.
Marsh is the roomy, thick, cozy sweater
that is kept by the door throughout all
seasons. Whether worn layered to keep
warm on morning farm chores in frigid
weather or thrown on for a chilly summer
evening, it gets lots of wear.
Marsh is worked from the top down, in the round
and flat, seamlessly. The pattern begins with the
back yoke, followed by each of the two shoulders
and the front yoke. After the underarm is reached
and the front and back yokes are joined, the lower
body is worked and finished with a high-low split
hem. Stitches are picked up around the sleeve
opening and worked in the round to the cuff. Lastly,
a double neckband is worked and whip stitched to
the inside of the neckline.
