Pattern description from Alterknits: “My goal with this sweater was to design a unique garment constructed nontraditionally. I used different colors to create the illusion of a layered garment; I varied the sequence of colors from one sleeve to the other; I used stockinette and reverse stockinette stitches asymmetrically on the back; and I sewed the sweater together so the seams were exposed.”
