DESIGN

Filipa Carneiro

This sweater is worked top-down and is completely seamless. We begin by knitting the back until reaching the armhole depth, then place these stitches on hold. The fronts are worked individually from stitches picked up along the shoulders, with increases to shape the neckline. After casting on stitches for the center of the neck, the fronts are joined and worked as a single piece down to the armholes. At the armhole, all pieces are joined to work the body in the round. The sleeves are also worked top-down, starting from stitches picked up around the armholes.
