Delicate lace stitches are the perfect way to add an element of elegance to a simple sweater. Paper Flowers uses our super-soft and stretchy Uptown Baby Sport yarn to create a sweater that looks luxurious yet is easy to care for! A lace body is offset by bracelet-length stockinette sleeves, and a boat neck enhances the overall vintage vibes of this sweet pullover.

PATTERN NOTES
This sweater is knit flat from the bottom up and seamed. The shoulders are joined with the three-needle bind-off. After assembling the body, stitches for the neckband are picked up and worked in the round.

This sweater is intended to fit with a generous amount of positive ease in the body, but with fitted sleeves. To determine the best size to make, measure your upper arm circumference and choose a size with a Sleeve measurement closest to this. The Sleeve measurement is given in the schematic.
