The teal sweater is designed with a flattering fitted shape and 7/8-length sleeves. This classic knit features a subtle diamond motif on the back for added interest. The sweater is worked flat, bottom-up, beginning with the back and front panels, and the pieces are seamed together to finish. Its simple construction makes it easy to knit in almost any yarn—just be sure to match the gauge by working a swatch. The pattern is also highly adaptable: you can customise the fit in both width and length, and extend the body and sleeves to your preferred measurements.
