Jody Long JL5077 Darren PDF

Darren from Jody Long is a great casual sweater with a straight fit through the body and an allover eyelet pattern on the yoke. With a classic shape, this crewneck sweater has a set-in sleeve construction and lets the stitch patterns take center stage. Reverse stockinette on the body gives great texture and the eyelet yoke catches your eye and steps up the style. Darren is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed in Cottontails yarn. Cottontails is a great choice for transitioning season garments with its 100% cotton fiber content and a chainette construction that makes finished projects lightweight and cool to wear even as temperatures rise. Stitch patterns are written out only.
