Berroco Piquet Dress Knitting Pattern

Projects that dovetail graceful design with functional warmth are always a delightful find, and Piquet from the Berroco Portfolio Vol. 8 Collection does just that. Knit seamlessly in the round from the top down, Piquet has deep ribbing at the collar, short rows at the back neck for a great fit, and a round yoke construction that sets up a striking stranded colorwork design. The adult version sports a statement sleeve that pulls in at the cuff to leave volume above the wrist while the children’s version has a more tapered sleeve for the best odds of staying mess-free. Either Berroco Ultra Wool and Berroco Vintage yarns can be used in this design, and both are machine-washable options that are soft, warm, and work up beautifully into cozy garments. Piquet will effortlessly pair with tights or leggings for kids and grow-ups alike, adding a cozy warmth and timeless style that will take you anywhere you need to go. Colorwork pattern is charted only.
