Mim Sweater
Make a statement sweater! Mosaic colorwork in a mirrored pattern takes center stage in this graphic, black-and-white design that is easier to stitch than it looks. Simple, slipped stitches mean only one color is used at a time, which makes managing yarns a breeze. Treat yourself to a luxurious blend of cotton and alpaca yarn for a multiseason pullover that is sure to turn heads.

Notes
• For techniques you don’t know, please visit our online knitting glossary at www.interweave.com/interweave-knitting-glossary.
• This sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up, then
divided at the armholes. German Short-rows are used to shape the shoulders, which are joined using the Three-needle Bind-off method. Sleeves are picked up around the armholes and worked in the round to the cuff.
• The width of the pattern repeat for both the body and the sleeves differs according to the size you are making. Work only those stitches within the repeat box for your size as indicated on the charts.
