London – Sweater Knitting Pattern – PDF

A sweater that captures London in autumn: refined, effortless, with that delicate lace detail that makes all the difference.

London is a classy boxy sweater with three-quarter sleeves, worked seamlessly from the top down. An elegant lace stitch pattern runs vertically along the body and frames the neckline, cuffs, and hem — clean lines with a touch of lightness.

Shoulders are shaped using the contiguous technique, and short rows at the back create a longer hem than the front for an impeccable fit across all sizes.

The sample is a size S (bust circumference 86 cm / 33.75 in, positive ease 9 cm / 3.5 in), knitted in Norli WOOrly in Love cream + Silky Mohair Winter Rose. In the last pages you'll find the testers' versions: sizes, yarns, colors, and yardage.
