DETAILS
This sweater is knit from the top down (meaning you can try it on as you go and add length to suit your own personal style!), beginning with the collar. You will separate the sleeves placing them on hold while the body is finished and then the sleeves are then returned to the needle, picking up stitches for the underarm for a totally seamless sweater!

SUGGESTED YARN
For this sweater I chose Mountain Meadow Tweed, a marled, sport weight 100% Mountain Merino wool that is the yarn dreams are made of! This 2-ply is perfect for sweater knitting and easily ranks among my favorite yarns thanks to its woolly feel, springy twist and naturalcolors.
