St. Laurent Sweater Knitting Pattern

St. Laurent Sweater Knitting Pattern

$6.00

This sassy little number is worked in the round from the top down using the dreamiest wool. Drops Air is a baby alpaca and merino wool blend, and even though it’s an Aran-weight wool, it works up as light as a cloud. This pattern gives you a short option and a long option, depending on the look you desire.

I rate this pattern as suitable for an advanced beginner; the lace repeat and the sweater design itself are very straightforward. This would be an excellent graduating-to-making-sweaters pattern, or a quick and easy knit for more advanced knitters.
