Lyrical Knits Seasons of Love PDF

Named for the signature song from the musical Rent!, Seasons of Love from Lyrical Knits is a versatile, lace-edged cardigan that can be worn as a wrap sweater, pinned at the underbust, or left open with the fronts gently draped to the sides. After working a strip of lace for the back of the neckline, stitches are picked up from the lace strip, and the raglan-sleeved garment is then knit seamlessly from the top down to the hem. Options are included for ¾ length and short sleeves, full or cropped length, and for a lace or plain hem. The lace patterns are charted and written out.
