Product Description
I came up with this cute stitch pattern for a hat and loved it so much that I wanted to make an all over textured sweater with it with an elegant high collar.
The ARMOR sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. Start working the collar in the collar stitch pattern and then increase for the armor stitch pattern. Then the yoke is worked with raglan increases until you separate the sleeves. Sleeve stitches are then placed on hold, underarm sts are cast on, and you continue to work the body in armor stitch to the bottom. After the body is completed, sleeve stitches are placed back onto the needles again to work the sleeves top down in armor stitch in the round to the end.
The garment is intended to be worn with approx. 22 cm (8¾”) of positive ease for smaller sizes and narrow bodies and gradually less positive ease for larger sizes and busty girls. Sample is shown in Size 3 with 22 cm (8¾“) positive ease.
