WaveSweater is a sweater worked in two colours and lace pattern. The model is worked top down. In the beginning of the yoke the back is worked in stockinette and then lace pattern. The front pieces are worked one at a time with a few increases and then joined to one front piece. The front piece is worked flat as the back piece. The front and back pieces are joined to create the body and worked in the round in lace pattern. The body is finished with a ribbing and italian bind off. The sleeve stitches are picking up along the armhole and worked in the round first in stockinette and then in lace pattern. The sleeves are finished with a ribbing and italian bind off. The neckline is created by picking up stitches and worked in the round in ribbing and italian bind off. The sweater is assembly free.
